Working to understand yourself better is a crucial part of the healing process, and for most people, it is an ongoing pursuit. In Phase 1 of our Warren County mental health workshop (Uncover and Discover), you will learn about and examine your personal trauma in a safe and supportive group setting. Everyone has life experiences worth acknowledging. Your social, familial, and romantic relationships, mood, beliefs about yourself, others, and the world, as well as aspects of physical well-being like sleep, are just some examples of things that past trauma and related concerns can influence.
Trauma is a known risk factor for diverse mental health conditions. Both major traumatic events–like abuse, sexual assault, natural disasters, loss of a loved one, war, or physical illness–and “smaller” stressors or traumatic events that accumulate over time, like persistent financial stress or criticism from a parent, can have a marked impact on these things.
That’s why our Warren County mental health workshop is able to effectively address a broad range of mental health concerns. Phase 1 builds a foundation for the next stages of the workshop.
