What is It?

Trauma is a response to deeply distressing or disturbing events that overwhelm an individual’s ability to cope, causing feelings of helplessness, diminishing their sense of self, and their ability to feel the full range of emotions and experiences. Trauma can stem from a single event or repetitive stress, affecting mental, emotional, and physical health. It often leads to lasting adverse effects on the individual’s functioning and mental, physical, or social health.
