HOW TRAUMA IMPACTS US
Whether the events occurred recently or decades ago, their impact on how we perceive the world and experience life can be profound. While talking about our experiences can be beneficial, at Sankofa Healing Studio, we recognize that sometimes words alone are not enough. We believe that our inner emotions directly influence our physical well-being, which is why we prioritize mind-body exercises to release pent-up trauma from both the mind and body. By addressing these somatic sensations, we create a nurturing environment where you can embark on your healing journey from within, alleviating the weight of life's challenges.
Throughout your healing process, we are here to support you every step of the way. Our primary focus is on your growth and well-being, as we help you move beyond your struggles and towards the life you envision. At Sankofa Healing Studio, we create a space that celebrates YOU – your authenticity, your strengths, and your unique journey. This is a space where you can freely express yourself, knowing that you will be embraced and encouraged to show up unapologetically as your true self.
Childhood Trauma
Childhood abuse, encompassing physical, sexual, and emotional forms, inflicts deep trauma with lasting repercussions that extend into adulthood. These experiences may include neglect and extreme poverty, residing in a violent household, the loss of a parent or sibling, growing up with a mentally ill or addicted caregiver, feeling unsafe in their neighborhood, enduring discrimination based on race, ethnicity, or sexuality, as well as being subjected to bullying.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Anxiety, fear, and a sense of hopelessness can persist following traumatic events, sometimes going unnoticed even by those closest to the individual. This emphasizes the significance of seeking support and talking to someone after experiencing trauma, even if there are no immediate signs of distress.
