Trauma and Mental Health
Trauma can be defined as a very distressing or disturbing experience that causes an individual to feel overwhelmed and unable to cope. Traumatic events can include physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, neglect, natural disasters, accidents, and more. The effects of trauma can be profound, especially for teenagers who are still developing. Trauma can negatively impact a teen’s mental health, often leading to depression, anxiety, mood swings, and other disorders such as PTSD. Left untreated, trauma can have long-term and far-reaching effects on your loved one’s mental health.

How Adolescent Trauma Therapy Fits into Treatment
Trauma treatment therapy is a key component of our comprehensive, individualized treatment plans. In addition to trauma treatment therapy services, we also offer a range of other therapeutic services, including individual and group therapy, medication management, family therapy, and more. We create treatment plans that are tailored to each individual’s unique needs and goals, so they can find the best path to recovery.
As your teen builds on the progress made in therapy, they will also be able to practice and strengthen the skills they have learned during treatment.
