What patients can expect during the first session with me is as follows: the first step is for us to gain better insight into the “What needs to be healed?” and the “How to heal?” roadmap. We will discover what we need to work towards and how we can work towards these goals. We will then create the foundations of our therapeutic relationship by gaining a sense of the therapeutic journey and the directions we need to go towards the patient’s healing journey.

Symptoms of Trauma include intrusive thoughts or flashbacks of the traumatic event, avoidance of reminders or triggers, hypervigilance, irritability, difficulty sleeping, emotional numbness, and feelings of detachment or estrangement from others.

Anyone who experiences or witnesses a traumatic event can develop Trauma. However, factors like a history of trauma, lack of support, high-stress levels, and genetic predisposition can increase the likelihood of developing the condition.

In some cases, symptoms may lessen over time, but many individuals require treatment to fully recover. Without intervention, Trauma can persist for years and may worsen, affecting mental health, relationships, and overall quality of life.
