What Is Trauma-Informed Care?

Trauma-informed care is a way of treating people who understand and respond to the effects of trauma. It involves recognizing and addressing the impact of all types of trauma. This approach aims to provide a safe and supportive environment to help you heal and rebuild your life.

Symptoms of Trauma

Understanding the signs of trauma can help you get the support you need. Here are some common symptoms:

Emotional Distress: Feeling anxious, scared, or overwhelmed.

Flashbacks: Reliving the traumatic event as if it were happening again.

Avoidance: Staying away from places, people, or activities that remind you of the trauma.

Negative Changes in Thinking and Mood: Having negative thoughts about yourself or others, feeling detached from friends and family.

Physical Symptoms: Experiencing physical symptoms like headaches, stomach problems, or fatigue.

Diagnosing Trauma

Diagnosing trauma involves a thorough check-up by a mental health professional. This includes talking about your symptoms, medical history, and any traumatic experiences you’ve had. The check-up might include physical exams and tests to ensure something else isn’t causing the symptoms.

How Is Trauma Treated at Our Center?

At Friendly Recovery Center, we offer a complete and personalized approach to treating trauma. Here are four critical parts of our treatment program:

Therapy

We use different types of treatment, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and trauma-focused therapy, to help you process and heal from traumatic experiences. Group therapy can also provide support and reduce feelings of isolation.

Management

Sometimes, we prescribe medications to help manage symptoms like anxiety or depression. Our medical team closely watches how well the medications work and manages any side effects.

Life Skills Training

We teach practical skills like personal care, stress management, and social skills to help you gain independence and improve your daily life.

Family Support and Education

We educate family members about trauma and involve them in your treatment. Family therapy sessions help families understand the impact of trauma and learn how to support their loved ones.
