Trauma

Some people experience trauma of the past which haunts them years later without warning. They experience flashbacks as if they are reliving the traumatic experience again and again. Whether it occurs because of a near death experience, domestic violence, physical or emotional abuse however it is possible to overcome the effects of trauma with trauma counselling. Trauma counselling uses a range of cognitive and interpersonal therapies to help you to rationalise the situation and overcome the pressures and stresses associated with it. With the help of psychotherapy and psychological education you can acquire the appropriate tools and skills to deal with trauma of the past and free yourself.

CIT Counselling carefully allows individual to go at their own pace, so they can bring up painful events when they feel safe to do so. The ‘self’ need to feel strong enough to cope with the intense feelings, so the feelings can be gradually processed at your own pace. By doing so, effective anxiety treatment can be carried out and gradually the oppression of the trauma will be relieved and the symptoms reduced. Where required, cognitive hypnotherapy can also be used to help reduce anxieties and allow you to consider situations in a more positive light.
