June 8, 2023 ⚊ 1 Min read ⚊ Views 54 ⚊ HEALTH
Trauma informed therapy is an approach to mental health treatment that recognizes and addresses the impact of trauma on an individual’s well being. It emphasizes creating a safe and supportive environment for the individual, as well as fostering a collaborative and empowering therapeutic relationship. In trauma informed therapy, practitioners are trained to understand the complex ways in which trauma can affect a person’s thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships. They take into account the individual’s unique experiences and recognize that trauma can manifest in various forms, such as physical, emotional, or psychological abuse, neglect, or witnessing traumatic events. One of the key principles of trauma informed therapy is creating a sense of safety and trust. Therapists prioritize establishing a non judgmental and empathetic space, where individuals feel secure to explore and process their traumatic experiences at their own pace.
