Frequently Asked Questions About Trauma Counseling in Columbus
Can something be traumatic even if others weren't affected by it?
Absolutely. Trauma is highly individual. Even if others experienced the same event without trauma, your experience and reaction are valid and deserving of care.
How can trauma affect my physical health?
Trauma can manifest physically through sleep issues, anxiety, panic attacks, and various other physical symptoms. It can also impact your body’s stress response system and overall health, impacting your quality of life.
What factors can affect how someone experiences trauma?
Several factors can influence how a person processes traumatic experiences. For example, people with ADHD may be more susceptible to trauma because their brains make more connections and often remember the most emotional aspects of experiences. Hormones can also play a significant role–research shows that women may experience increased PTSD symptoms during certain phases of their menstrual cycle. Other factors like age, previous experiences, and individual brain chemistry can all affect how someone processes and responds to traumatic events.
How long does trauma therapy take?
The duration of trauma therapy varies based on individual needs, types of trauma, and how it’s affecting you. Your trauma therapist in Columbus will work at a pace that feels safe and manageable for you.
