Trauma occurs when someone experiences one or more events that threaten their physical, mental and/or emotional well-being. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder that is a direct consequence of experiencing trauma and can include flashbacks, nightmares, intrusive thoughts, avoidance of reminders of the trauma and mood disturbances. PTSD can be treated in a variety of ways including medication, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, Exposure Therapy, Emotional Freedom Technique (tapping), and mindfulness practices.

There are three main types of trauma: Acute, Chronic, or Complex. Acute trauma results from a single incident. Chronic trauma is repeated and prolonged such as domestic violence or abuse. Complex trauma is exposure to varied and multiple traumatic events, often of an invasive, interpersonal nature. Sometimes people experience post traumatic responses to adverse childhood experiences, a single event or living as marginalized identities in our society. That is, some people experience trauma response by dealing with recurring microaggressions, discrimination, bullying from individuals, communities and macro aggressions such as systemic oppression. We need to consider the impact traumatic experiences have on our mind, body and overall experience as a human navigating uncertain and challenging times.

Dr. JD Wright
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
When working with trauma I pull from EMDR, somatic approaches, and parts work. A primary goal of the work is to reduce shame and self-judgments, and for you to feel like you can understand and provide compassion to yourself. Through those processes, trauma can be transformed and your experience of yourself and those around you naturally reshaped.
