#tamarahilllpc
Childhood, PTSD, and adult trauma can truly change your mind.
It can change the way you think about life, yourself, and others. It can also change how you view the meaning of your life.
There are 5 things that existential psychotherapists discuss in sessions that can impact how you see your trauma and overall experience:
1. Isolation
2. Meaning and purpose in life
3. Meaninglessness
4. Death
Although there are many topics on existentialism, these are 5 challenges that are often at the core of those who have experienced childhood trauma and PTSD. It's hard to make sense out of the traumas experienced and sometimes it feels impossible to heal.
In this video, I discuss how trauma can change not only your mind but many aspects of the human experience.
