Trauma- and Stressor-Related Disorders
Trauma- and Stressor-Related Disorders develop in response to overwhelming,
frightening, or deeply stressful life experiences. These may include
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Acute Stress Disorder
Adjustment Disorders
When the nervous system becomes
overloaded, a person may experience intrusive memories or flashbacks, heightened
anxiety, emotional numbness, sleep disturbances, or difficulty adapting to new
circumstances. These reactions can affect daily functioning, relationships, and one’s
sense of identity or safety in the world.
Treatment
Healing begins with rebuilding emotional and physical safety. Treatment focuses on
processing traumatic memories at a pace that feels manageable, reducing distress,
and restoring a sense of stability and empowerment. Evidence-based approaches
such as:
- EMDR
- Somatic therapy
- Hypnotherapy
- Dialectical behavior therapy
- Cognitive-behavioral therapy
- Supportive trauma-informed counseling help individuals reconnect with their inner strength and regain resilience
With the right support, people can learn to live with greater ease, groundedness,
and hope.
