Healing generational legacies

Complex Trauma

Complex trauma is persistent and pervasive trauma, most commonly in childhood. If you experienced complex trauma you know that it is something that you carry with you at all times. Growing up in an abusive home where you were emotionally, physically and/or sexually abused caused you to develop through the lens of pain and self hatred.

Most of us can trace patterns of abusive and destructive upbringings from generations past. Changing these patterns by healing ourselves is hardest and most rewarding challenge we can ever face.

You can heal from the pain of the past through Trauma Focused Therapy. You will connect your self destructive behaviors to lessons learned in childhood and find new ways to cope with life’s challenges.

Autistic and ADHD children are more vulnerable to experiencing trauma than the general population. Some social, behavioral and emotional components of neurodivergence put children at risk for bullying, scapegoating and being exploited. Neurodivergent kids can also experience higher levels of trauma because of their sensitivities and the way they experience the world.
