Processing trauma in therapy involves creating a safe and supportive environment where individuals can explore and integrate their traumatic experiences. Therapists employ evidence-based techniques like eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR), narrative therapy, or psychodynamic approaches to help clients process and make sense of their trauma. This often includes identifying and challenging distorted beliefs, exploring emotions associated with the trauma, and gradually exposing individuals to traumatic memories in a controlled manner. The goal is to foster adaptive coping strategies, reduce distressing symptoms such as flashbacks or hypervigilance, and promote resilience and healing. Therapeutic processing of trauma aims to empower individuals to reclaim their sense of safety, rebuild trust in themselves and others, and cultivate a renewed sense of identity and purpose.
