Understanding Trauma & How It Affects You
Trauma may come from many sources such as abuse, violence, accidents, loss, or ongoing stress. While everyone responds differently, common effects include:
-
Intrusive memories or flashbacks
-
Feeling “on edge” or easily startled
-
Trouble trusting others or maintaining relationships
-
Difficulty sleeping or concentrating
-
Numbness, disconnection, or feeling unsafe
Trauma therapy creates space to explore how your experiences have affected you, while building strategies to cope, heal, and move forward.
A Trauma-Informed Approach
At Tiny Therapy Collective, we use a trauma-informed, person-centered approach. This means your therapist focuses on:
-
Safety first — ensuring sessions move at a pace that feels manageable
-
Grounding and stabilization — helping you regulate emotions and calm your nervous system
-
Exploration of experiences — gently making sense of what happened, if and when you are ready
-
Rebuilding trust and connection — supporting you in relationships and daily life
-
Strengths-based care — highlighting your resilience and capacity to recover
We recognize that healing isn’t about a single method. It’s about creating a supportive relationship where you feel heard, respected, and empowered.
