Indirect trauma occurs when someone doesn’t experience the trauma themselves but learns about it from others. 🚨 Secondary trauma - happens when someone is exposed to the firsthand traumatic experience of someone else. e.g watching the news. 🚨Vicarious trauma - often occurs in therapists, medical professionals , emergency services. These professionals are often exposed to many traumatic experiences they witness whilst working.

❗ Trauma reactions are normal reactions to extremely abnormal circumstances. 💭 It's hard to predict what type of traumatic reaction each individual will experience following a disastrous event. 🔎 Some individuals may have more severe reactions than others. 💜 However, it's important to give yourself permission to have your reactions and to take care of them through self care, spending time with loved ones, or seeking professional help. . . . #trauma #ptsd #cptsd #pts #traumareaction #hyperarousal #traumasurvivor #traumatherapist #emdrtherapist #emotionalhealth #therapyworks #psychologytoday #talktherapy #telehealthcare #californiatherapy #californiacounseling #militaryfamilylife #psychotherapy #firstrespondertherapy #LosAngelesTherapy #SanJoseTherapy #SanFranciscoTherapy #VeteranTherapy #MarriageAndFamilyTherapy #militarykidstrong #ptsdtherapy #policefamily
