Many of my clients come to therapy seeking relief from a traumatic experience. Some traumas occur during childhood. Some occur later in life. They might be a single incident or they might be repeat occurrences. They can range from a mild car accident to the sudden loss of a loved one.

Many people hope that things will get better with the passage of time but this isn’t usually how it works with trauma. Traumatic memory is stored differently than normal memory.
