ADULTS WITH CHILDHOOD TRAUMA
The way out is always through.
You’re tired of feeling like your past is affecting your present.
Growing up in an emotionally unsafe or unstable environment can leave deep scars that impact every aspect of our lives. Whether you experienced overt abuse or like you never quite fit in, those early experiences shape how we handle things as adults. The coping strategies that got us through back then might not be so helpful now, holding us back from living our best lives.
Seeing or experiencing unhealthy patterns can leave a lasting mark, showing up as clinginess, fear of abandonment, or picking partners who aren't right for us. It's tough when others downplay our struggles, saying "it wasn't that bad," but deep down, we know the impact it's had.
You might hesitate to share your story, thinking others have had it worse. But your story matters here. Trauma, whether recent or buried deep, can affect us more than we realize. Even stuff from way back, like how we connected (or didn't) with caregivers, can shape our adult relationships. But here's the good news: these patterns aren't set in stone. With a trauma therapist in Los Angeles who gets it, we can work on rewriting those old scripts.
It's time to unpack how your past has shaped your life and relationships. Together, we'll explore the highs and lows, shedding light on what's holding you back and helping you move toward healthier connections.
