Therapy Concerns

What is relational trauma?

Relational trauma involves repeated harmful interactions that can affect emotional well-being and trust in relationships.

How can therapy harm?

Therapy can sometimes replicate past traumas, creating new wounds instead of healing old ones, especially if boundaries are crossed.

What is a trauma bond?

A trauma bond is a strong emotional attachment formed through shared trauma, making it difficult to break free from unhealthy relationships.

Why do therapists terminate treatment?

Therapists may terminate treatment if they feel out of their depth or if boundaries are not maintained properly.

How to choose a therapist?

Look for a therapist with experience in trauma-informed care and strong boundary-setting skills to ensure a safe environment.

What if therapy feels wrong?

If therapy feels harmful or triggering, it's important to communicate your feelings or consider finding a new therapist who understands your needs.
