Trauma Information Sheet | Understanding Trauma & Recovery Sydney
Trauma responses are shaped by the nervous system and can include states of hyperarousal (e.g. anxiety, agitation) and hypoarousal (e.g. withdrawal, numbness). Recovery often involves a phased approach, including stabilisation, processing, and integration. Evidence-based therapies can support individuals in developing safety, regulation, and resilience over time.
This resource may be helpful if you experience:
✔ intrusive memories or flashbacks

✔ emotional numbness or shutdown
