Understanding psychological trauma: symptoms, treatment and impact

George Katsaros

Psychological trauma is a complex and often misunderstood concept that refers to the emotional and psychological distress that results from experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. Traumatic events can vary in nature and severity, from a car accident or natural disaster to physical or sexual abuse. The effects of psychological trauma can be long lasting and can impact a person’s mental health, relationships and overall well-being.
