Childhood Trauma

Understanding Childhood Trauma and Its Impact

Childhood trauma can take many forms, including neglect or physical, sexual, mental, or emotional abuse from a parent or family member. It can also stem from being raised by authoritarian, emotionally unavailable, or emotionally immature parents. Many children take on roles like the caretaker, the peacekeeper, the “problem child,” the black sheep, or the family scapegoat, leaving deep emotional scars.

These early experiences often create strong emotions such as sadness, anger, or anxiety that carry into adulthood. Trauma can impact relationships, emotional regulation, attachment, and self- esteem, leading to patterns that feel difficult to break.

Recognizing Burnout and the Impact of People-Pleasing

Burnout can show up in many ways, but a common trigger is people-pleasing — the constant drive to meet others’ needs at the expense of your own. You may struggle to set boundaries, feel overwhelmed, and notice a decline in energy, motivation, and overall well-being. This can lead to feelings of exhaustion, frustration, and disconnection from yourself.

How Therapy Can Help You Find Balance

Therapy offers a safe space to explore the root causes of your burnout, helping you uncover patterns of people-pleasing and identify where boundaries have been crossed. Working together, we can create a plan that prioritizes your well-being, fosters healthy relationships, and helps you regain a sense of balance and peace. Whether you’re seeking to return to work with renewed energy or simply find more joy in your day-to-day, therapy can help guide you toward sustainable, long-term healing.
