Living with trauma or complex trauma (CPTSD) can feel isolating, but residential trauma treatment may be the transformative solution you or your loved one needs to find relief. Inpatient holistic therapy provides professional mental health care, customized support, and the possibility for deep, lasting healing.
What Trauma Can Look Like
Trauma is a complex, multilayered experience and CPTSD can develop from chronic trauma. In the briefest definition, trauma results from a stressful event if a person feels their safety or life has been threatened. Examples of causes of CPTSD include:
- Long-term sexual or physical abuse as a child
- Ongoing domestic violence
- Victim of sex trafficking or human trafficking
- War
- Community violence
Some common hallmarks of PTSD overall include the following:
- Psychological, emotional, or physical response.
- Deeply buried feelings that often present as denial.
- Constant overwhelm, fright, helplessness, or feeling unsafe.
- Difficulty sustaining relationships.
- Avoidance of situations or places related to the trauma.
Common Stress Responses to CPTSD
The suffering that results from complex trauma can make it difficult for a person to ask for help or move on, which makes identifying symptoms of the condition more critical. No matter the feelings that result, they are valid. Stress responses could look like this:
- Anxiety or fear
- Guilt or shame
- Irritability or anger
- Aggressive mood swings
- Depression
- Nightmares or flashbacks
- Heart palpitations
- Difficulty concentrating
Symptoms like these can masquerade as other health conditions that can sometimes be wrapped up in a trauma diagnosis. Many people who choose residential trauma treatment are given a dual diagnosis of multiple mental health disorders along with trauma or substance abuse or addiction conditions. Complex trauma, without a doubt, requires specialized care.
How Inpatient Holistic Therapy Works for PTSD and CPTSD
Residential holistic treatment provides an environment to address every angle of discomfort and suffering. In a personalized program, guests spend 30 to 90 days in a healing environment, concentrating on recovery away from distractions, fear, or a triggering environment. The care is intensive and focused. Whether you or a loved one has suffered a stressful one-time event or experienced an ongoing source of chaos, trauma is very real, complex, and demands nuanced treatment. Above all, the message is that:
- Your feelings are valid.
- You do not deserve to feel shame.
- It is your right and privilege to ask for help.
No matter when you may have suffered a trauma, even if it was years ago, there is no guarantee that time will heal the wounds. You may have undergone treatment in the past, but the effects of trauma can be triggered long after the event without thorough treatment. And, of course, untreated trauma can last for years and be even more likely to appear without warning. The goal of holistic inpatient therapy is to examine every corner of trauma and heal it wholly so you can move on in every aspect of your life and well-being.
