Childhood trauma therapy for adults
effects of childhood trauma
Many adults don’t realize how much their childhood still affects them. As kids, we often learn to stay quiet, avoid problems, or make others happy especially if things at home were hard.
These behaviors helped us feel safe back then, but they can hold us back today. They can make it hard to speak up, feel confident, or be your true self.
Signs of childhood trauma include:
Trouble trusting people
Feeling scared or worried a lot
Getting upset easily or feeling angry
Trying to make everyone happy all the time
Not knowing how to say “no” or set boundaries
Feeling like you’re not good enough
Avoiding conflict or hard conversations
Having a hard time talking about your feelings
Feeling disconnected or like something is “off”
Always blaming yourself, even when it’s not your fault
Healing starts with feeling safe, both emotionally and mentally. Once that safety is in place, therapy can help you explore the past, release old pain, and build healthier ways to connect.
Therapy for childhood trauma helps you trust yourself, feel more confident, and create the life you deserve, one step at a time.
