Childhood Trauma
You have a story. A story that began with your family of origin.
When we become aware of who we are and what has shaped us a powerful thing happens.
We receive the ability to choose.
Now instead of our past unconsciously driving our present behavior, we have awareness. We can understand the forces at work inside of us and make choices about who and how we want to be in the world.
Your story may have started in a nurturing family with imperfect but attentive parents. Or your story may have begun in a family where you experienced neglect, criticism, over-indulgence, abandonment, or abuse.
Either way, you have a story and understanding your story is the key to healing, freedom and health in your life and relationships.
Treatment
Our Clinical Team utilizes Pia Mellody’s Post Induction Therapy model addressing the impact of developmental trauma. In addition, trauma treatment is based on a head and heart model where we teach you to understand how trauma impacts the brain and is also registered in your body. Then we help you to reconnect to your body in a safe manner so that the experiences long held in the body can be released and integrated into your present-day life.
Reach for support
If you are healing childhood trauma you have options available for your support. Schedule a call with one of the trauma-trained therapists at the Relational Recovery Institute or do some self learning through watching and working through our two workshops: Reframing Codependency: Healing the 5 Core Issues at the Heart of Relational Recovery and Healing and Reparenting the Wounded Child Within.
