Calm from turmoil

In this post 9/11 world, many therapists are expanding their skills and techniques to deal with trauma and its effects. It is now accepted that ANY traumatic event can leave a devastating emotional residue.

This can happen after experiencing or witnessing

• crime
• domestic violence
• road traffic incidents
• terrorist activity
• natural disasters
• childbirth
• . . . . . to name a few.

Any event that causes a shock to the system can result in lasting physical and emotional damage. The 'after shock' symptoms can be bewildering and severe - affecting our ability to get on with our daily lives. These can appear immediately, within days, months, or even years, after the original event.

Trauma After Birth Syndrome (TABS)                                       Many women are so traumatised by childbirth that they vow "never again" - believing it to be their 'failure'.  This too can be resolved and more specific details can be found at http://www.birthknowhow.co.uk
