Trauma Therapy in NYC
Trauma can have cascading effects on your personhood and development. It might occur early in childhood, perhaps it’s a series of career trauma or even relational trauma. Trauma persists and worsens usually when we “repress” it. Therapy helps you process traumatic events, helping you have more ownership over memories- as well as beginning to recognize defense mechanisms that have formed due to traumatic events that have overstayed their welcome.
Do you find yourself constantly procrastinating, sabotaging, “ghosting”, “pushing” others away, or other responses? Sometimes these are defense mechanisms are born from trauma. They can be changed, dismantled, lessened in severity, intensity, and frequency and more in the therapeutic frame.
