Trauma, whether recent <\/strong>or from childhood<\/a>, can leave us very sensitive. Things which might not upset others will trigger our body\u2019s memory of trauma<\/a>, leaving us a mess. So trauma therapy needs to take this into account.<\/span><\/p>\n

Instead of assuming regular therapy will work for your complex trauma<\/a> or PTSD? Consider the following types of therapy.<\/span><\/p>\n

You can avoid being so triggered by therapy you feel worse than when you started.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR)<\/span><\/h4>\n

This type of therapy works best when you have <\/strong>had one strong traumatic event<\/a> that has given you post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and flashbacks<\/a>. It might work for complex PTSD<\/a>, made of consistent trauma over time, but it depends on the individual. <\/span><\/p>\n

The process of EMDR<\/a> can sound odd. You talk about your traumatic experiences as the therapist gets your eyes to make rapid movements. <\/strong>This can involve flashing a light in your eyes or asking you to follow a pencil with your eyes. Yes, it might sound strange, but it’s proven by research to be very effective, and approved by the necessary therapy associations<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) <\/span><\/h4>\n

Why is CBT recommended for trauma?<\/strong> For starters, it\u2019s not about talking endlessly about your past. While that might help a person with general anxiety or depression<\/a>, talking about past trauma can re-traumatise someone with complex PTSD. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

CBT therapy is better as it focuses on your life right now<\/a>. How can you better manage?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\"trauma<\/a>

By: Phoenix Wolf-Ray<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

Cognitive behavioural therapy<\/a> focuses on retraining your brain away from negative thoughts<\/a> and ‘cognitive distortions’<\/a>. And trauma tends to make your brain think in just these dramatic extremes<\/a> (the world is dangerous, I can\u2019t do anything right) that CBT excels at neutralising. <\/span><\/p>\n

A cognitive behavioural therapist can also help you start to take control of your behaviours<\/a>, so you are not always hiding from life or sabotaging yourself<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some therapists even offer a type of CBT geared just for trauma, called “trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy” (TF-CBT).\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Note that CBT is a<\/strong> short-term therapy<\/a>. You and the therapist will commit in the first few sessions to how long you\u2019ll work together.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Schema Therapy <\/span><\/h4>\n

Schema therapy<\/a> focuses on helping you recognise and change behavioural patterns.<\/span><\/p>\n

More importantly, for those who suffered childhood trauma, it shows you how to have<\/strong> trusting relationships<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

If your trauma involved being neglected or<\/strong> abused by a parent or caregiver you are unlikely to have had trusting relationships since. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The loneliness not being able to trust others brings can lead to depression and anxiety. It also makes therapy seem intimidating, as it is such an intimate relationship. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\"trauma

By: Crystal<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n

You can feel needy, or let down by a normal therapist.<\/strong> A schema therapist, however uses what is called \u2018limited reparenting<\/a>\u2019. This means they are very supportive and understanding, like a parent figure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Schema therapy is particularly recommended for those who<\/strong> suffered sexual abuse as a child and now have borderline personality disorder<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dialectical behaviour therapy <\/span><\/h4>\n

This is another form of therapy that helps those who suffered<\/strong> sexual abuse<\/a>, and now have complex trauma<\/a>, and\/or borderline personality disorder. <\/span><\/p>\n

The creator of this type of therapy suffered BPD herself. <\/strong>She wanted to create a therapy that could help those with impulsivity<\/a> and emotional dysregulation<\/a> to create a life they felt good being in. DBT<\/a> combines things like mindfulness and behavioural interventions. It is often done using a combination of group work and then one-on-one sessions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Body-based psychotherapy <\/span><\/h4>\n

Post-traumatic stress disorder is a highly physical experience. <\/strong>It can involve muscle tension<\/a>, jumpiness, constant colds and flus or unexplained medical symptoms<\/a>, headaches, stomach upsets, and sleep problems<\/a>. Why is this?<\/span><\/p>\n

For starters, if our stress response<\/a> is too easily triggered due to past trauma, then our body will be releasing stress hormones that can help cause such symptoms. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n

But the other idea is that the body \u2018stores\u2019 trauma. This can particularly be true in cases of physical or sexual abuse<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Body psychotherapy is a licensed form of psychotherapy.<\/strong> It combines talking about and processing the past with listening to the body itself, and might use body movements<\/a> to release emotions. <\/span><\/p>\n

Some body psychotherapists use a tool called ‘somatic therapy<\/a>‘ or ‘somatic processing’.<\/strong>\u00a0It is a technique designed just to help clients who have gone through traumatic experiences. But note that used on its own, by someone who is not a registered therapist<\/a>, it is considered an alternative treatment.<\/span><\/p>\n
