Are you someone seeking meaning after trauma?
Right now, you may be experiencing:
- Feeling lost, disillusioned, or questioning your previous beliefs and values after surviving a traumatic event
- A sense that life lacks purpose or significance following the trauma
- Struggling to reconcile the traumatic experience with your understanding of the world or yourself
- Feeling disconnected from activities, relationships, or goals that used to bring you meaning
- Existential questions about suffering, fairness, or the point of life arising from the trauma
- Difficulty finding joy, hope, or motivation in the aftermath
- A sense that the trauma fundamentally changed you, leaving you unsure of who you are now or what matters most
You’re realizing that the struggle to find meaning post-trauma is getting in the way of your life:
- It contributes to feelings of hopelessness, depression, or despair
- It prevents you from fully engaging in life or moving forward from the trauma
- Your relationships may suffer if you feel withdrawn or unable to connect around shared values
- You feel stagnant, unable to find direction or purpose in your post-trauma reality
- The lack of meaning makes it harder to cope with ongoing trauma symptoms or life stressors
- You feel alienated from your pre-trauma self and sense of purpose
You’re wondering…
- How can I find meaning in life again after experiencing something so senseless or devastating?
- Is it possible to grow or find purpose *because* of the trauma, not just despite it (post-traumatic growth)?
- How do I reconcile my trauma with my beliefs about the world or a higher power?
- Can I create a new sense of purpose that incorporates my trauma experience?
- Where do I even begin to look for meaning when everything feels shattered?
- Can therapy help me navigate these deep existential questions and find a path forward?
You’re longing for…
- A renewed sense of purpose, meaning, and direction in life.
- Integration of the traumatic experience into your life story in a way that fosters growth.
- Hope, resilience, and the ability to find joy and connection again.
- Clarity on your values and what truly matters to you now.
- A way to make sense of your suffering and use your experience for personal or collective good.
- Feeling connected to something larger than yourself.
