Childhood trauma can continue to affect you long after childhood has ended. Discover how childhood trauma in adults can influence emotional wellbeing, relationships, self-worth, anxiety and responses to stress — and how trauma-informed counselling can support recovery.

Complex trauma develops after repeated or ongoing traumatic experiences, particularly during childhood. Learn the symptoms of complex trauma, how it affects the nervous system and relationships, and how trauma-informed therapy can support recovery.

Do you find yourself freezing, shutting down, going blank, or feeling emotionally numb during stress? These experiences are often misunderstood, but they can be normal trauma responses rather than signs of weakness. Learn why the nervous system responds this way, what dissociation and emotional shutdown mean, and how trauma informed counselling can help.
