Starting Tragedy counseling

What is tragedy counseling?

Tragedy counseling helps people heal from the tragedies that they have experienced in life. When tragedy occurs, the effects are often devastating and long-lasting. While you may be able to prepare for some of these events, most of the time, they take you by surprise and it’s helpful to have professional support.

How does tragedy counseling work?

Tragedy counseling plays a vital role in helping people work through tragedy and develop the tools they need to overcome the feelings of fear, hopelessness, and despair that are often associated with experiencing tragic or traumatic events.

Is tragedy counseling conducted in person or online?

Large Scale Tragedy – Counselors, Coaches and Therapists in Peachtree City

There is no “right” or “wrong” way to feel following a tragic event. Emotions such as disbelief, helplessness, guilt, shame, and even relief, can ebb and flow in waves.

At Thriveworks Peachtree City, our mental health therapists are well-versed in the symptoms of trauma as well as the stages of recovery, and can help guide you along the path to healing.

Signs You’re Struggling

Important steps to take when faced with this type of trauma:

  • Keep structure. There is comfort in the familiar.
  • Use gentle words, externally towards those with different points of view, and internally with yourself.
  • Limit negative input by removing yourself from nonproductive conversations and by restricting the viewing of repetitive negative images.
  • Don’t isolate. Helping others allows you to reclaim power and diminished your sense of vulnerability.
  • Work towards forgiveness.

In regard to children, limit their exposure to excessive images or news about the events. Answer their questions in age-appropriate ways.

Unresolved Trauma

Unresolved trauma can lead to long-term depression and anxiety, which can both lead to other health issues including sleep disturbance, substance abuse, blood pressure problems, and more. If you need help processing a tragedy, call our Peachtree City counseling office. We’re waiting to help.

I have known Stephanie for over six years and worked side by side with her in a mental health center for part of that time. What comes across first and foremost is her caring and concern for her clients and her determination to see that their needs are met. She brings to her work a wide range of experience and training along with confidence that is reassuring and a comfort to those in distress. She can deal calmly with the most severe issues as well as with problems of daily living. In the time that I've known her, she has been licensed in three different states to practice in a variety of settings. If you come to her in a time of need, in a time of emotional upheaval or difficult questions, I don't think you will find a more competent or more caring therapist.
