What Are Trauma and PTSD?
When the brain perceives a threat, it floods the body with adrenaline and cortisol. This causes the classic fight, flight, or freeze response. During a life-threatening event, like an accident or natural disaster, the body will either process or store these chemicals. When they are processed, the event becomes a memory. When they are stored, the event becomes a traumatic memory that easily triggers another fight, flight, or flees response. Storing these chemicals is common and results in symptoms like:
- Anger
- Mood swings
- Changes in heart rate
- Insomnia
- Constant worry
- Sense of doom
- Hopelessness
- Irrational thought patterns
- Emotional outburst
- Profuse sweating
- Nightmares
Some psychologists say that trauma gets “trapped” in the body’s tissues, ready to reactivate physical, mental, and emotional symptoms when triggered. These triggers and responses look different depending on their PTSD and life experience. PTSD develops when someone experiences ongoing trauma. This is common with veterans and first responders who experience life-threatening events consistently without sufficient time to process them. Because everyone’s experience of trauma is unique, it’s important to seek professional help for trauma resolution.
What Is Rapid Resolution Therapy For PTSD?
Also called RRT, trauma resolution therapy helps clients feel safe and stabilizes trauma triggers. RRT can help clients find self-soothing techniques to return to feeling calm and safe despite traumatic memories easily. RRT is highly individualized, providing clients with guided imagery, hypnosis, and other forms of talk therapy to safely work through unprocessed trauma, develop coping strategies, and feel safe. For those with PTSD, RRT provides a safe space to work through traumatic memories. For many, this may be the first time they’ve discussed the details of a traumatic event. Their RRT therapist will help provide a space that feels safe, calm, and nonjudgmental as they begin to work through trauma.
RRT can also pair well with other therapies, like EMDR, CBT, and DBT, for overall wellness. Many clients also find support through alternative therapies like art, meditation, and yoga as they work through rapid trauma resolution.
Who Benefits from RRT?
RRT is beneficial for a variety of people, including veterans who frequently face traumatic situations during their service. Veterans, in particular, often have ongoing trauma that needs specialized approaches like RRT for effective resolution.
Benefits of RRT for veterans:
- Reduces symptoms of PTSD
- Improves emotional regulation
- Enhances coping strategies
- Provides a safe space for processing trauma
- Promotes overall mental wellness
Overall, RRT can significantly improve the quality of life for veterans by addressing their unique trauma issues. It empowers them with tools and techniques to manage traumatic memories and regain control over their lives.
