What Causes Trauma?

Trauma is deeply personal and can be triggered by different experiences, which may include the following:

  • Neglect or abuse
  • Accidents, injuries, or medical events
  • Natural disasters
  • Loss of a loved one
  • Exposure to violence or war
  • Harassment or bullying

These experiences may lead to flashbacks, anxiety, depression, isolation, or persistent feelings of fear. Dr. Blanco-Oilar specializes in trauma therapy to address:

  • Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Emotional or physical abuse
  • Childhood trauma and adverse experiences
  • Grief and loss-related trauma
  • Anxiety and depression

With techniques such as trauma-informed care, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness, a trauma therapist creates a safe environment where clients can process and recover from past experiences.
