Trauma isn’t just about what happened — it’s about how the experience has been held inside. For children and teens, even events that may seem small to adults can feel overwhelming and leave them struggling long after the event.

You might notice your child or teen:

• Becomes anxious, withdrawn, or overly irritable

• Struggles with sleep, nightmares, or recurring memories

• Avoids certain places, people, or activities linked to the trauma

• Experiences physical symptoms of stress like headaches, stomach aches, or a racing heart

• Finds it difficult to trust, feel safe, or regulate emotions

Unresolved trauma can affect not only the young person but also the whole family, as daily routines and relationships are impacted.

Understanding Trauma in Children & Teens

The types of trauma I commonly see are:

• The aftermath of bullying

• Parental separation or divorce

• Bereavement such as grandparents, loss of a pet

• Post Accident / injury

Hypnotherapy can help with trauma in a gentle supportive non-direct approach.

How I Help Children & Teens Heal from Trauma

My sessions are designed to be gentle, safe, and age-appropriate, helping children and teens feel secure as they process difficult experiences. I use a blend of hypnotherapy, mind-body calming techniques, and parts therapy to help them safely release emotions, fear and regain a sense of control.

Here’s what makes my approach effective:

• Child and teen-friendly techniques that feel safe and supportive, taking time to build rapport and trust

• Practical coping tools for managing triggers and calming stress responses

• Parent involvement so you can provide reassurance and encouragement at home

• Strength-based focus to help your child or teen rebuild confidence and hope for the future
