Relational trauma refers to trauma that happens within a close relationship. This can be the result of abuse, neglect, abandonment, or enmeshment. This can occur in adult relationships as well as when there are traumatic interactions between caregivers and children during critical development phases. These interactions impact the child’s brain and create negative attachments that shape the way the child interacts with others throughout their life. We help you navigate and overcome through holding a safe space for therapy to occur.
