Understanding Trauma and Finding Help That Works
Many adults carry hidden emotional wounds. Whether caused by childhood experiences, toxic relationships, or a single traumatic event, these experiences can have long-term effects—often without us realizing it.
If you’re searching for trauma counselling in Toowong, you’re taking the first important step toward healing. Our team of psychologists understands the complexity of trauma and offers personalised support in a safe, non-judgmental environment.
What Is Psychological Trauma?
Psychological trauma is your mind and body’s response to overwhelming experiences. It might stem from:
- Emotional or physical abuse
- Childhood neglect or instability
- Medical emergencies or accidents
- High-stress careers or caregiving roles
- Relationship trauma or betrayal
Everyone processes trauma differently. What’s traumatic for one person might not be for another—and that’s okay.
Signs You Might Be Living with Unresolved Trauma
Unhealed trauma often shows up in ways we don’t immediately link to our past. You might notice:
- Ongoing anxiety, panic, or hypervigilance
- Emotional numbness or feeling “shut down”
- Sleep disturbances or nightmares
- Difficulty with relationships or trust
- Feelings of guilt, shame, or worthlessness
If these symptoms sound familiar, trauma-informed therapy can help.
