Trauma Treatment
Overview
Treatment for Trauma
Trauma leads to the repeated involuntary triggering of the stress reaction
in the body,
which often causes one to feel overwhelming fear and helplessness.
Instead of
experiencing the trauma just once, the mind/body continues to relive
the traumatic
memory over and over, lasting months, years, or decades.
This continual
hyper-arousal causes severe stress on the body
and deep physical and emotional pain.
This incessant stress on your mind and body eventually takes its toll by manifesting
evident signs of a traumatic memory, that clearly has no healed.
Casa Palmera's team of highly specialized professionals works to design a unique
healing program to address, treat, and heal your specific trauma-related symptoms.
Signs of Trauma
It's important to get treatment as soon as possible when symptoms are interfering
with the quality of your life, your well-being, and your relationships. Without
professional treatment, symptoms of trauma will likely worsen and could soon
become disabling.
Common warning signs that indicate the need for treatment include:
• Depression / Anxiety
• Abuse of drugs and/or alcohol
• Disturbances in appetite and/or changes in eating patterns
• Inability to trust others
• Difficulty concentrating / Easily distracted
• Feeling uncomfortable or anxious in social situations
• Recurring thoughts from the trauma interfering with everyday life
What You Need to Know About Trauma
