The Necessity Of Childhood Trauma Therapy

By Richard Adams


Trauma in adults is frightening enough, but when you have to deal with this as a child, it can be extremely difficult to manage. This happens for a number of different reasons and often kids don't want to confide in anyone because they are too afraid. This is why parents need to consider childhood trauma therapy after taking note of the signs.

A lot of adults are not even aware when kids have a problem and this is what one has to look into. There may be subtle changes. This is why one has to keep a close eye on behavioural and emotional changes that have altered over the course of time. It can be slight, but it doesn't mean that there is no problem. Some kids try to do this on purpose because they don't want anyone to find out.

However, as soon as a child does confide in someone, they need to take this seriously. There are also certain signs which a parent or a teacher can take note of. These are brought on suddenly. They may become anxious or depressed. The anxiety or depression is different to that of an adult. They will become moody and angry. A young child may throw tantrums. They will want to spend time away from family and friends.

They will go through an array of moods. Unfortunately, many parents seem to think that this is a stage. Of course, there are kids that go through a number of stages, especially during the two year old phase when they are developing. However, one can tell that this is a little different and the child does not become happy for much of the time.

For example, when parents get divorced and kids were never given any support, the child will often grow up thinking that this is their fault. They will grow up with shameful emotions and this will also affect their adult life. As an adult, they will also have relationship issues. They may have problems in their professional life. They can develop addictions and they can develop problems with their self esteem.

The youngster won't want to open up again. It will be something that they will have to live with for the rest of their lives. Of course, these days there are teachers who know the signs since they have been trained. They will know that youngsters prefer to stay inside while all other kids are outside having a good time. They will withdraw and isolate themselves from others.

Their mood will usually be downcast and often they will become sad, while there are kids who may become angry or aggressive. If this moody behaviour is brought on suddenly, it is important that the teacher takes action. In most cases, he or she will confront them. But they will do this in a subtle way. There are also child psychologists at the school who can help in many ways.

A lot can come out in this way. For example, they will draw using dark colors. If asked to draw the family home, they will often show this without doors or windows. Family members will be shown with angry or sad looking expressions. It can tell the teacher or carer so much.
