Are You Tired Of Dealing With The Effects Of Trauma?
Do you find it hard to focus? Are you constantly worrying or doubting yourself? Most of us have experienced trauma, whether we realize it or not. Trauma is any negative event that causes us emotional pain and sticks with us, therefore every one of us has experienced trauma at some point in our lives.
You may have been dealing with the effects of trauma for years or even decades, or you may have experienced a recent traumatic event or life change, such as an injury or job loss, that has caused you to change the way you think about yourself.
Trauma can have a profound impact on the way in which we view ourselves, others, and the world around us.

Emotional trauma can have long-lasting effects on our minds, bodies, and relationships with others. Whether you’ve been struggling since childhood as a result of abuse or neglect, or are dealing with a recent major life change, trauma can lead to depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, unhealthy relationships, guilt, and shame, or poor job/academic functioning.
When you leave trauma untreated, its effects can worsen over time.
- Are you easily angered?
- Do you have poor self-esteem or a lack of confidence?
- Are you in an unhealthy relationship?
- Do you have a hard time focusing or getting things done?
- Are the same obsessive thoughts replaying in your mind over and over again?
The trauma we experience shapes who we are, but you can learn to prevent it from controlling your life.
These feelings are common symptoms of emotional trauma that can impact every part of our lives if we allow them to. Psychotherapy can help you heal from painful experiences so you can live a productive and fulfilling life. If you’re ready to break free from the pain, contact Jordan Zipkin, LMFT today.
