Trauma Therapy for Veterans in Orem, Utah
It is so damn tiring to always be on the lookout for danger, and yet it’s ingrained in you. Even after leaving the service, it feels like you never left because you remember painful events, you don’t know what is worse the nightmares, or the insomnia either way both of these are making it really hard to function. And it is so hard to connect with the civilian world, because well they just don’t get it…You are not alone. Military Veterans have come to me because they are frustrated that distressing events from their service continue to come up and want real concrete steps to heal and not just sit on the couch and talk about your feeling’s sessions. Having spent most of my career working at the VA, I bring the background and expertise to help resolve trauma symptoms without any bureaucracy or long wait times. I can help you to calm your body and mind so you can finally relax and enjoy yourself with family and friends.
How do I know if I need Trauma Counseling?
Many veterans who have served in the military have witnessed or experienced traumatic events such as combat trauma, losing a friend, or sexual or physical assault. After witnessing these events it can create symptoms such
· Survivors guilt
· Nightmares
· Anxiety around being around certain places or people
· Difficulty with connecting with loved ones
· Experiencing numbness or lack of positive emotions
· Having distress surrounding memories of military events
· Anxiety and depression
· Difficulty sleeping
· Sexual dysfunction and weight gain (Yes! trauma symptoms can cause this due to the rise of stress and cortisol)
You are ready for a change. It is so hard to believe that you’re not always going to feel like this. There is something better and you do not need years and years of being on the therapy couch to achieve this. Let me help you get back to you.
