What to Expect in Your First Trauma Therapy Appointment. AI-Generated.
Starting Trauma Therapy can feel overwhelming. You might be unsure about what will happen, how much you’ll need to share, or even if you’ll feel safe enough to talk about your experiences. The truth is-many people feel nervous before their first session. I’ve been there too, sitting in the waiting room with a racing heart, wondering if I made the right choice. The good news is, your first appointment isn’t about reliving everything at once. It’s about building trust, setting goals, and giving yourself permission to take the first step toward healing.

Climb On Down. Content Warning.
~ Let's begin the tour from the soft space between our closed eyes, the place one may see colourful spots, auras of timeless reflection, a shade between our restful state and consciousness. Just lie there. Here is where you are truly alone, the emptiness we are left with, a place Freud referred to as our Id. No one truly knows us and our highest self often ignores this quiet spot altogether. Truth is not always pretty and so easy to hide from. ~

When Silence Follows You
Being late never used to bother me. But today, it feels heavier than bad timing—it feels like fate. The university library stretches before me, polished tiles gleaming under harsh fluorescent lights. Every sound seems amplified. My shoes scuff against the floor. My breath bounces back at me. Even the faint creak of a shelf seems to shout in the emptiness. In this antiseptic quiet, I am listening. Straining. Waiting. Because here, silence isn’t safety. Silence is a trap.
