Post-traumatic stress is a natural response of the body and psyche to a deeply distressing experience. When people have gone through a traumatic experience, paradoxically, stress appears as a defense mechanism. Post-traumatic stress or anxiety is warning the person that they are in danger. 

This "danger" is almost always an erroneous reading of reality, and it comes from the impact produced by the trauma, keeping the person in a state of uncontrollable irrational anxiety that disturbs the normal development of daily life. Even when the traumatic event took place weeks, months or even years ago. When this happens, we speak of post-traumatic stress/anxiety.

A psychologist trained in alternative therapies has therapeutic tools from clinical psychology (scientific… to call it one way); and in addition, she has tools from humanistic, holistic, and/or  transpersonal psychology.  Which is why the alternative therapy that I provide is a safe way to undertake the journey of healing from trauma.

Holistic trauma therapy is a comprehensive, revealing, and deep psychological method. I include everything that happens in your life and has a meaning for your development in the therapeutic work, every aspect of your Soul, your psyche, your body, your life, and your environment(s).

Trauma therapy means that together with you we find out the extent of your post-traumatic stress, which parts of your system are affected, which chronic diseases and which psychological disorders burden your daily life and influence your life.

For successful therapy it is not enough to know what happened, to talk about it again and again or to imagine that it is over now. You have to deal with all the events that still burden your life today and remember and feel all the feelings that you have repressed. This "re-experiencing" in adulthood enables you to "reintegrate" the personality parts that were split off at the time of the traumatization and to continue the interrupted development of your personality.
