Right now, as a result of your relational trauma background, you may be experiencing…
- Depression and/or anxiety (including generalized anxiety).
- Self-harming or self-sabotaging behaviors.
- Chronic patterns of challenges and dysfunction in relationships.
- Feeling emotionally flooded and overwhelmed easily.
- Having a compulsive need to numb out and escape through behaviors and dependency habits.
You’re realizing that your unresolved relational trauma is getting in the way of your life…
- You can’t make the progress you want in your career because you seem to keep self-sabotaging.
- All of your relationships seem to be chaotic and you can’t understand why.
- You struggle with shame and self-hatred.
- You feel very disconnected from your body and emotions.
- You long to create a healthy family of your own but you have no idea if this will ever be possible for you.
You’re wondering…
- Is what I’m going through actually relational trauma?
- Why am I not over my childhood yet? It was so long ago…
- Can someone as “broken” as I feel actually have a happy and good life?
- Is there hope for me?
You’re longing for…
- A chance to have a happy life, just like people who come from non-trauma backgrounds.
- Good, fulfilling relationships – the kind that respects your boundaries, supports you, and uplifts you.
- The experience of actually liking yourself and doing the things that people who like themselves do.
- A chance to not feel so much emotional pain.
- To find a pathway forward towards healing.
What you’re longing for is possible.
At Evergreen Counseling, we have a staff of seasoned, evidence-based therapists skilled in treating relational trauma.
How we can help you
By pursuing therapy for relational trauma, you can imagine the following:
You don’t understand why your life isn’t going the way you want it to. You feel fundamentally broken and powerless.
You have a clear understanding of how your past impacted you and why you are the way you are. You have compassion for how you are and have more choices.
You feel stuck in life. Like you’re treading water and you can’t get ahead like your peers.
You finally feel like you have a sense of direction, and agency, and can see change being possible.
You seem to magnetize people who treat you poorly.
Abusive, dysfunctional people are clearly discerned and you have the boundary tools to keep them from harming you.
You feel both desperate to change and alternatively despair that change is possible for you.
You understand what changes you may need and want to make and can take consistent action towards your goals.
What if I’m Not Ready?
If you don’t feel quite ready to book a complimentary consult call yet, that’s completely fine.
We don’t want you to feel pressured and we know that the choice to seek out therapy can feel difficult.
Part of you wants to do it, and another part of you is, perhaps, scared to begin because of the feelings you might have to finally feel.
Or a part of you questions whether or not you can even be helped at all.
Whatever the reason, no matter how ready or not ready you feel to begin therapy, we want you to have the information you need to make an informed choice.
So, to that end, please explore the additional information below to learn more about us and how we can help you.
We’ll be here whenever you’re ready to reach out for support.
