Frequently Asked Questions

Our Trauma Service treats a wide range of traumatic experiences, including but not limited to physical or sexual assault, childhood abuse, domestic violence, accidents, natural disasters, military combat, and witnessing or experiencing violence. We provide care for both acute and chronic trauma.

Common symptoms of trauma can include flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, depression, irritability, emotional numbness, difficulty concentrating, and avoidance of places or situations that trigger memories of the trauma. Physical symptoms such as headaches, fatigue, and gastrointestinal issues can also occur.

Treatments for trauma typically include therapies such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), trauma-focused cognitive therapy, and somatic experiencing. In some cases, medication may be prescribed to manage symptoms such as anxiety or depression. Our service also offers group therapy and support groups to provide additional support.

Evidence-based treatments for trauma, such as CBT and EMDR, have been shown to be highly effective in helping individuals process and recover from traumatic experiences. Many patients experience significant improvement in symptoms and overall quality of life. The effectiveness of treatment can depend on factors such as the individual’s commitment to therapy, the severity of the trauma, and the presence of a supportive environment.

If you are experiencing persistent symptoms that interfere with your daily life, relationships, or ability to function, it may be beneficial to seek professional help. This can include ongoing feelings of fear or helplessness, intrusive memories, avoidance behaviors, difficulty managing emotions, or physical symptoms linked to the trauma. Consulting with a mental health professional can help you determine the best course of action for your specific situation.
