Trauma Disorders Treatment
At GloFusion Health Clinic in Griffin, GA, we provide respectful, structured care for trauma-related disorders, including post-traumatic stress and trauma-related anxiety in children, teens, and adults. Our goal is to help you feel safer in your own body and more in control of your daily life.
What Are Trauma Disorders?
Trauma disorders are mental health conditions that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a deeply distressing or life-threatening event, such as violence, abuse, serious accidents, sudden loss, or combat.
Common trauma-related conditions include:
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Acute stress reactions
- Trauma-related anxiety and mood changes
These conditions are not a sign of weakness. They are the brain and body’s response to overwhelming stress. With the right support, symptoms can improve.
Across Ages Symptoms
Trauma Symptoms Across Ages
Trauma can look different in children, teens, and adults. Some patterns overlap, but the way symptoms show up day-to-day often changes with age.
In Children
- Nightmares or trouble sleeping
- New fears or clinginess
- Regressive behaviors (bedwetting, baby talk)
- Irritability, tantrums, or aggression
- Play that repeats parts of the traumatic event
- Physical complaints (stomachaches, headaches) with no clear cause
In Teens
- Irritability, anger, or sudden mood swings
- Risky behaviors or substance use
- Trouble focusing in school
- Emotional numbness or feeling “shut down”
- Avoiding reminders of the event, places, or people
- Changes in sleep, appetite, or grades
In Adults
- Intrusive memories or flashbacks
- Nightmares or disturbed sleep
- Feeling constantly “on edge” or easily startled
- Avoiding people, places, or conversations that trigger memories
- Emotional numbness, disconnection, or loss of interest
- Negative beliefs like “I’m unsafe” or “I can’t trust anyone”
If trauma symptoms are lasting more than a few weeks and affecting work, school, relationships, or daily functioning, a trauma evaluation can help.
Causes and Risk Factors
Causes and Risk Factors of Trauma
Not everyone who goes through trauma develops a trauma disorder. Certain factors can increase risk.
Common Causes
- Physical, emotional, or sexual abuse
- Domestic or intimate partner violence
- Serious accidents or injuries
- Sudden loss of a loved one
- Community violence or crime
- Military combat or repeated exposure to trauma
- Medical emergencies or intensive care stays
Risk Factors
You may be at higher risk for a trauma disorder if you:
- Experienced trauma at a young age
- Have a history of multiple or repeated traumatic events
- Lack a strong support system after the event
- Have a personal or family history of anxiety, depression, or other mental health conditions
- Are also dealing with substance use or chronic stress
Even with risk factors, support and treatment can reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
