Often people slip into "survival mode" and aren't aware of the accumulation of stress. They adapt to the symptoms and continue to cope therefore often do not address the traumatic incident

Frequently the symptoms spill over in daily life and relationships. Processing the effects of stressful events can help you to FEEL BETTER & FUNCTION BETTER.
