What is Childhood Trauma Disorder?
Childhood is often seen as a time of innocence and joy, but for many, it can also be marked by traumatic events that leave enduring impacts. Childhood trauma encompasses experiences that jeopardize a child’s physical and emotional safety, including abuse, neglect, violence, or loss. Such experiences can have long-lasting effects on mental health, potentially leading to anxiety, depression, PTSD, or substance use disorders. At Sol Mental Wellness’s Riverside center, we offer specialized treatment for childhood trauma designed to support and heal clients on their mental health journeys.
Childhood trauma encompasses any experience or event that jeopardizes a child’s safety, security, or well-being. This trauma can result from isolated incidents, such as witnessing violence or experiencing a car accident, or from ongoing situations like abuse or neglect. The impact of childhood trauma on mental health varies based on its severity, frequency, and duration. Common forms of childhood trauma include physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, neglect, domestic violence, natural disasters, and parental separation or divorce.
Do I have Childhood Trauma Disorder?
Childhood trauma can have a profound impact on mental health, manifesting as heightened anxiety, depression, irritability, and mood swings. These traumatic experiences can disrupt brain development, influencing how individuals perceive and react to stress and danger. Those affected may experience symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares, and heightened alertness. Additionally, some individuals might resort to substance use or other harmful behaviors as a coping mechanism. Without appropriate treatment, the effects of childhood trauma can persist, affecting daily functioning and overall quality of life.

We also encourage participation in group activities and community events, recognizing the importance of social support in the recovery process.
