Psychological wound care
Trauma therapy is psychological treatment focused on helping people process and recover from traumatic experiences—events like abuse, violence, accidents, or loss that overwhelm normal coping mechanisms.
Various approaches exist, including EMDR, cognitive processing therapy, and somatic techniques.
The goal is to reduce symptoms like flashbacks, anxiety, and emotional numbness while helping patients integrate traumatic memories: She started trauma therapy after the assault.
