At Into the Light, we recognize that healing from trauma is a journey that requires support and understanding. Our experienced team is here to provide effective trauma therapy to help men heal the wounds of the past and regain a sense of safety.
Understanding trauma in men is a critical aspect of providing effective support and care for individuals who have experienced traumatic events. Trauma can affect anyone, regardless of their gender, and it’s important to recognize that men may have unique responses and challenges when dealing with trauma.
Trauma refers to an emotional, psychological, or physical response to an event or series of events that are distressing, frightening, or harmful. These events overwhelm an individual’s ability to cope, leaving lasting effects on their mental, emotional, and often physical well-being. Trauma can be experienced directly or indirectly, and its impact can vary based on the individual’s resilience, support systems, and coping mechanisms.
