Are you struggling with the effects of C-PTSD?
Right now, you might be experiencing:
- Intense Emotional Distress: Overwhelming feelings of worthlessness, shame, and guilt.
- Dissociative Symptoms: Flashbacks, nightmares, and a heightened state of hypervigilance.
- Emotional Regulation Challenges: Difficulty managing your emotions, leading to intense and unpredictable mood swings.
- Unstable Relationships: A pattern of unstable and fractured relationships, often leaving you feeling isolated and misunderstood.
- Avoidance Behaviors: Avoiding both external reminders and your own thoughts and feelings related to the traumatic events you’ve experienced.
You’ve started to recognize how unresolved C-PTSD is impacting your life:
- Constricted Life: Your world is getting smaller and more controlled as you avoid any reminder of the traumatic events you went through.
- Work Disruption: You can’t seem to focus at work, finding yourself dissociating throughout the day without meaning to.
- Boundary Issues: You have poor boundaries with others and are withdrawing from relationships because they feel painful, exhausting, and difficult to navigate.
- Emotional Flashbacks: Experiencing intense emotions of shame, guilt, and despair as if the original trauma is happening all over again.
- Persistent Emotional Distress: Feeling persistently sad, perpetually anxious, or chronically numb.
You’re wondering…
- Is C-PTSD even a real diagnosis? Is that what’s happening to me?
- I thought my childhood was okay. Why am I experiencing these symptoms now?
- Will I have to talk about all the details and relive them again? Why should I do that?
- I feel broken. Is it too late to overcome this?
You’re longing for…
- Emotional Stability: To feel more equipped to handle life, especially the relationships in your life.
- A Consistent Sense of Self: A more stable and consistent sense of self and steady self-esteem as you move through your days.
- Healthy Coping: The ability to get through the day without relying on substances or behaviors you know aren’t good for you.
- Physical Ease: To feel at ease in your body, not in a constant state of fight/flight/freeze.
- Presence: The ability to stay present and not “drift off” during work, conversations, and other daily activities.
What you’re longing for is possible.
At Evergreen Counseling, we have a team of seasoned, evidence-based trauma-trained therapists who specialize in treating C-PTSD.
Imagine the Transformation Through Trauma Therapy
By pursuing trauma therapy for C-PTSD, you can imagine:
Before Therapy
After Therapy
You don’t have a name for your experience and what you’ve gone through. You know something’s wrong, but you don’t know what it is.
You have a clear understanding of what’s happening, a cohesive narrative, and a pathway forward.
You do whatever you can to avoid reminders of the traumatic event(s), making your world smaller, more controlled, and deadened.
You have a greater capacity to face your triggers and feel more in control of your life.
You’re relying on self-sabotaging and destructive coping behaviors and substances to numb your feelings.
You’ve replaced these behaviors with healthier, more functional choices.
You have a history of broken friendships, poor romantic partners, and people who seem to take advantage of you.
You’ve developed relational skills to attract and maintain healthy, functional relationships in your life.
