WHAT IS TRAUMA?

So some of you may be wondering: what is trauma? You’ve likely heard of it, but even those who have experienced an event that qualifies as traumatic, they may still not fully understand what trauma is. In essence, trauma is psychological damage that happens to the mind after experiencing a singular or a series of highly stressful events. Trauma of any nature can be difficult to identify and work through — sexual trauma more so for some people. Many victims of sexual trauma or trauma convince themselves that “it wasn’t that bad” or that it was somehow their fault. It’s critical that you seek professional help. Working through your past trauma, sexual or otherwise, will help you find clarity, closure, and live a more fulfilling life.

SEXUAL TRAUMA THERAPY

At Revibe Therapy in Winter Park and Lake Nona, we utilize the power of Cognitive Hypnotherapy therapy to guide you through sexual trauma therapy. Cognitive Hypnotherapy therapy is recognized as one of the most effective methods in addressing trauma and we find that it is just as effective in helping those who have experienced sexual trauma.

For those of you unfamiliar with Cognitive Hypnotherapy therapy, it is a type of treatment that consists of eight steps. The steps are as follows:

  1. History and treatment planning
  2. Preparation
  3. Assessment
  4. Desensitization
  5. Installation
  6. Body scan
  7. Closure
  8. Reevaluation

Within these steps, your mental health professional at Revibe Therapy in Winter Park and Lake Nona will assist you with the bilateral stimulation of the brain. This can be achieved by focusing on an object your therapist is holding as it moves from left to right, or simply by alternating squeezing something with your right and left hands. Bilateral stimulation during Cognitive Hypnotherapy therapy assists trauma patients in staying grounded, present, aware, and feeling safe as they work through the past traumas and painful memories. In addition to bilateral stimulation, your therapist at Revibe Therapy will help you use positive imagery to help replace negative thoughts, feelings, and memories.
