CHILDHOOD TRAUMA
Silent burdens from childhood that still impact you.
Childhood trauma can leave invisible wounds that affect how you see yourself, relate to others, and manage stress — sometimes long after the events have passed. You might struggle with feelings of shame, mistrust, or emotional numbness. Or you might notice patterns repeating in your relationships and daily life that don’t make sense.
Emotions
can feel overwhelming or numb, with no clear reason why.
What can childhood trauma look like?
Trauma can take many forms, including:
-
Physical, emotional, or sexual abuse
-
Neglect or abandonment
-
Witnessing domestic violence or substance abuse
-
Bullying or peer rejection
-
Loss or separation from caregivers
-
Unpredictable or chaotic home environments
Its impact can show up as:
-
Difficulty regulating emotions
-
Anxiety, depression, or dissociation
-
Trust issues or fear of abandonment
-
Struggles with self-worth and identity
-
Challenges setting healthy boundaries
Why does this happen?
Childhood trauma disrupts your sense of safety and trust during key developmental years. Your brain adapts to protect you, but these survival responses can lead to lasting emotional challenges like anxiety, difficulty trusting, or struggles with self-worth.
Often, the pain is stored beneath the surface, affecting how you feel and relate—even if you don’t fully understand why. Healing means gently rewiring these patterns and finding safety and connection again.
