Counseling for Trauma in Charlotte and Belmont
Trauma presents itself in myriad forms and is insidious and unpredictable.

Natural disasters. Car accidents. Infidelity. Sexual abuse and assault. Military and law enforcement service. Relationship violence. Family dysfunction. Internet bullying. There is no shortage of sources.
Those suffering the after-affects of trauma may feel depressed and anxious. They may experience flashbacks, intrusive thoughts or panic attacks and innumerable symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress. They may feel numb and unable to feel or express emotions. Their ability to trust others is impaired.
Trauma symptoms typically do not just go away with time.
People may bury the memories of a life-altering event only to be triggered decades later by something seemingly unrelated. Trauma can rob us of peace. Our quality of life, even our identity, may be disrupted.
Using psychotherapy and cutting-edge treatments, including Eye Motion Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), those suffering from trauma can see rapid improvement and resolution of symptoms.
