TRAUMA THERAPY

The very structure of trauma, including:

the anger of the fight response
the fear and terror of the flight response
the zoning-out / dissociation, numbing, and depression shut down of the freeze response

is based on the brain's automatic, "hard-wired" predator/prey survival behaviors.

Traumatic symptoms are not caused by the dangerous event(s) itself. They arise when autonomic nervous systems (ANS) response from the event is stopped and not discharged from the body. These instinctive survival responses remain trapped in the nervous system where it can wreak havoc on our bodies and minds.

Paul Hambrick uses the safe, gradual methods of SE - Somatic Experiencing, EMDR and other trauma therapies to help clients resolve the excess energy and overpowering emotions caused by developmental and traumatic events.
