3 Things that Sabotage your Motivation
1) Negative inner dialogue. Be kind to yourself! Be your own best friend.
2) Your goals are all about trying to get rid of something or getting away from something. Losing weight or earning more money won't buy you emotional peace.
3) You haven't gotten to the root of the emotional wounds that are holding you back.

This is what we do. Many people need help to work through the complex emotions that hold us back.

Call today and schedule a consultation with one of our therapists. Discover Counseling Center can help.

What is C.P.T.S.D or Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder?

CPTSD, or Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, is a psychological condition that can develop after prolonged or repeated trauma, often in situations where someone feels trapped or powerless. Unlike PTSD, which typically stems from a single event (like a car accident or assault), CPTSD is linked to ongoing stressors—think childhood abuse, domestic violence, or long-term captivity.

Symptoms go beyond PTSD’s flashbacks and nightmares. CPTSD can include:
🔸 Difficulty regulating emotions (intense anger, sadness, or shame)
🔸 Feeling disconnected from yourself or others (dissociation)
🔸 Negative self-image (believing you’re worthless or broken)
🔸 Trouble trusting people or maintaining relationships
🔸 A sense of hopelessness or loss of meaning

Treatment often involves therapy—like trauma-focused CBT or EMDR—sometimes paired with meds to manage symptoms.

If you or someone you know needs help, we're here to support you.
