Why Seek Online Therapy in CT for Childhood Trauma?
How Has Childhood Trauma Been Impacting You?
Your past is murky. Some things are unclear and confusing, and some things sting you with shame and discomfort. Your relationship with your parents is frantic: somehow, you have always been the “fixer,” the “responsible one,” and whenever you have softened and shown your vulnerable, angry, hurt, or upset sides, you have experienced backlash and panic. The ways that you have hidden yourself worked so well. I mean, hardly anyone has noticed the REAL you. But now it’s starting to eat away at you, make it hard to function, and cause you fear. It’s time for you to care for yourself and heal. Why not explore online therapy in CT?
Childhood Trauma Therapy Requires a Good Fit
Childhood trauma arises from repeated breaks and wounds in close relationships, but without any repair or guarantee of safety/security.
What causes childhood trauma?
Physical abuse
Sexual abuse
Emotional abuse
Emotional neglect
Abandonment
Food/housing insecurity
Impact of acculturation/immigration
Narcissistic abuse
Attachment wounds
Because you will be exploring these wounds and broken trust, finding an experienced trauma therapist who understands this dynamic is critical. Safety between you and your trauma therapist is necessary for the healing process to unfold.
A Good Therapeutic Fit Can Happen with Online Therapy in CT
As childhood trauma therapy unfolds, you gain skills to navigate the stress you experience in your body, the fear of repairing with people after conflict, and the grief of tending to the younger parts of you, or the versions of you that still feel terror and threat. That means that this therapeutic relationship is key. Sometimes finding a good fit for your needs in your immediate area can be tough, but with online therapy in CT, you get to expand what is accessible to you to the entire state. As you expand your access, you get the opportunity to find someone who intrinsically understands your experience and can support you to gain the tools and skills you need.
You’re Busy. How Will You Get to Therapy?
Connecticut is no fun for traveling long distances, is it? This makes getting to an appointment far more time-consuming and complicated. Online therapy in CT removes the transportation barrier. Suddenly, you do not need to worry about access to a car or bus, or whether a space is walking distance, or accessible.
Online Therapy in CT Increases Access
No transportation? Frustrated with inaccessible spaces? Overwhelmed by running from errand to appointment to work to home? No problem! The great thing about online therapy in CT is that you only need a private space, internet, and your device. No added time buffer needed to get from place to place. You can even schedule therapy before or during the work/school day, or even during a lunch break. So much simpler! And when inclement weather happens, you do not have to worry about braving the elements or wondering whether it’s still okay to go to your appointment. At Nurturing Willow Psychotherapy, you get to easily attend your session without worry.
With Online Therapy in CT, Healing Childhood Trauma Happens
You have privacy and safety with an experienced trauma therapist and the use of a HIPAA-compliant platform to meet for sessions. The added benefit? Online therapy in CT allows you to build grounding and anchoring tools in your very own space. This means you get to learn new tools for relating to your body in a kind, compassionate way that gently brings you out of moments of terror, anger, and numbness and back into the present where you feel connected to yourself and able to move through the rest of your day. Learning these tools in your own space makes the transition into and out of therapy easier. AND this way, you can easily practice these new skills in your very own space because you have your own tools right there!
