Trauma

Trauma is a person’s emotional response to a distressing experience. Few people can go through life without encountering some kind of trauma. Unlike ordinary hardships, traumatic events tend to be sudden and unpredictable, involve a serious threat to life—like bodily injury or death—and feel beyond a person’s control. Most important, events are traumatic to the degree that they undermine a person's sense of safety in the world and create a sense that catastrophe could strike at any time.

Anxiety

Anxiety is both a mental and physical state of negative expectation. Mentally it is characterized by increased arousal and apprehension creating distressing worry, and physically by unpleasant activation of multiple body systems—all to facilitate response to an unknown danger, whether real or imagined.

Complex Trauma

When an individual experiences one or more types of trauma consistently over time, it becomes compounded and cumulative in our minds and bodies…it becomes complex trauma, which is considered more severe and generally takes more time to heal.

Infidelity

Infidelity is the breaking of a promise to remain faithful to a romantic partner, whether that promise was a part of marriage vow or an unspoken assumption. As unthinkable as the notion of breaking such promises may be at the time they are made, infidelity is common, and when it happens, it raises thorny questions: Should you stay? Can trust be rebuilt? Or is there no choice but to pack up and move on?

Partners of Sex Addicts

A natural response that our minds and bodies do to check out from, escape from or rest from people, places, situations or things that are stressful, fearful or reminiscent of trauma.

Dissociation can become disruptive and severe, negatively impacting

Other roles and responsibilities

Porn Addiction and Recovery

This type of addiction occurs when there is a dependence of sexual behavior in order to cope with the stressors of life. This dependence can create interpersonal as well as relationship problems.

Pornography addiction can seriously damage relationships and take precedence over important functions and responsibilities in someone's life. If you have a porn addiction, the behavior is compulsive.

What separates a porn addiction from a keen interest in porn is the negative consequences of your behavior.

With porn addiction, you spend an inordinate amount of time watching porn instead of interacting with others or completing important tasks. The behavior persists even if it harms your career, relationships, or state of well-being.

Betrayal Trauma

This type of trauma occurs when a spouse experiences repeated denial, lies, manipulation, crazy making and other emotional and mental abuse from their partners who are attempting to cover up and conceal emotional, relational and/or sexual infidelity.

Mindfulness

Mindfulness is a state of active, open attention to the present. This state is described as observing one’s thoughts and feelings without judging them as good or bad.

Those facing chronic stress, anxiety or depression can use mindfulness techniques to help alleviate stress.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

EMDR is an acronym for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. It is a treatment method developed by Francine Shapiro in the late 1980’s. The approach has been widely and extensively researched, validated and fine tuned to address all kinds of mood disorders, addictions and trauma.

Depression

Depression often involves persistent sadness, anxiety, or empty mood; feelings of hopelessness, and feelings of guilt, worthlessness, or helplessness. It can also involve loss of interest or pleasure in hobbies and activities that were once enjoyed. Decreased energy, fatigue, or a sense of being "slowed down" are also common, as are restlessness, irritability, and difficulty concentrating, remembering, or making decisions. Some with depression have thoughts of death or suicide.

Intimacy Reintegration

Reconnecting intimately after sexual betrayal can be difficult and scary. When trust and safety have been broken it's nearly impossible for intimacy to exist. However, there is a process of reestablishing trust and safety in a way that can create space for vulnerability and intimacy to be reintroduced.
