Trauma therapy is highly effective in helping individuals recover from the impact of traumatic events. Research shows that 70-90% of people who receive trauma-informed care can experience significant improvement in their symptoms and lead fulfilling lives. Trauma therapy in Savannah is important because it provides a safe space for individuals to process their experiences, identify triggers, and develop healthy coping mechanisms. It helps individuals regain a sense of control and empowers them to heal from the emotional and physical effects of trauma.
Book a SessionAcute trauma occurs when there is a solitary, intense traumatic event, such as a natural disaster, sexual assault, medical emergency, or physical assault. While many people will not experience the negative effects of the trauma for longer than six months, others will develop PTSD.
Chronic trauma involves persistent and prolonged traumatic situations, such as homelessness, poverty, domestic abuse, emotional abuse or chronic illness, often lasting an extended period. Chronic trauma is more likely to leave lasting negative impacts, but trauma therapy is effective in treating it.
Complex trauma arises from enduring exposure to traumatic events during childhood, leading to chronic PTSD. These experiences may include childhood abuse, neglect, recurring sexual or physical assault, prolonged periods of poverty or homelessness, or living in a war-ravaged region, among others.
Traumatic Stress Disorder is a mental illness that can develop after a traumatic event. PTSD can last from six months to many years. Prior traumas, a family history of PTSD, a lack of social support, high levels of chronic stress, or lower socioeconomic status may increase the likelihood of developing PTSD.
