TRAUMA

Trauma changes us

Trauma creates change, and not always the change that we want.

I love this tree. This image was inspired by a patient of mine, who felt that this tree represented his trauma story. His life was on track, until trauma forced it in another direction. He could have fallen over, he could have overbalanced and the branches snapped, but instead he sought some "staunch support" to learn how to keep living his life in a new direction.
