Kelly finally escaped her mentally and emotionally abusive relationship. She felt immediate relief and muttered to herself, “It’s finally over.” But over the next few months, she realized that just because the abusive relationship was over didn’t mean that she was completely healed. She had nightmares and flashbacks to the abuse; she often felt distracted at work by memories of her experiences; and she preferred to stay home by herself to spending time with friends or family.

Mental and emotional abuse is just one example of trauma. And Kelly’s specific experience with trauma, detailed above, is but one example of the negative effects that come with trauma. A traumatic event is one that causes the individual psychological distress. It might come in the form of a mentally abusive relationship, physical violence, the death of a loved one, the loss of a job, or a near-death experience. And it can have devastating symptoms that disturb life as the individual knows it, as seen with Kelly.

“The conflict between the will to deny horrible events and the will to proclaim them aloud is the central dialectic of psychological trauma.” –Judith Lewis Herman

If you have witnessed a traumatic event and it’s having negative effects on your life, you might have post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In any case, if you have experienced trauma, you could benefit from working with a trauma therapist.

If you are in the Quincy, MA area, consider trauma therapy at Thriveworks Counseling in Quincy. The trauma therapists on our team would be happy to help you heal post-trauma. Just give us a call to schedule your appointment.
