Trauma and PTSD
Cindy Yu
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Trauma is like a infected wound that sometimes the surface layer has healed, but the damage is still continuing within. An unhealed wound can often be reopened by different triggers, and the symptoms and patterns repeat again. As your therapist, my role is guide and help you affectively "clean" and "treat" the wound, so that it can stop the damage and heal properly.

Trauma and PTSD
Alena Porter
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, NCC
Trauma and PTSD, especially C-PTSD, includes any emotional experience that was upsetting and different than you had experienced up to that point in your life. C-PTSD often involves parental neglect, unavailability, or inconsistency. I am not one of the therapists who will tell you that you need to forgive and rebuild your relationsihp with anyone you choose not to have in your life. The idea that people should continue to endure mistreatment simply because someone is family is absurd. Of course, trauma and PTSD can include experiencing or witnessing any type of violence, abuse, accidents, or the threats of violence or abuse. Trauma has been my specialty since the beginning of my career and I have taken extensive training on the treatment of trauma. More importantly than if I am qualified to treat you for upsetting or traumatic past experiences is the fact that I will never minimize your experiences. Please do not avoid going to therapy because you think what you experienced was "not that bad." If it was upsetting to you when it happened and it still affects your life in any way I want to help you reduce or eliminate the impact of those experiences on your present day and future life.
