Trauma and PTSD
Traumatic experiences that overwhelm an individual's ability to cope, leading to intense emotional reactions and psychological distress. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop following exposure to trauma, characterized by symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares, and hypervigilance. Counseling for trauma and PTSD aims to process traumatic memories, reduce symptoms, and restore a sense of safety and well-being.
