Phobia and/or trauma coaching
"In fear one becomes aware of freedom .
Trauma imprisons your inner freedom ."
Take the decision to deal with your phobia or trauma.
Has the time come to take the next step that will lead you to the beginning of change?
During my coaching courses I was interested in complaints that were trauma or
phobia related and what they can do with you.
I think that as a coach in the field of trauma treatment or phobia, you should recognize the symptoms.
Trauma
Many people suffer from having a phobia or trauma and regularly without realizing it.
A simple event can be enough.
An unrealized trauma can occur in a so-called post traumatic stress syndrome (PTSD) and
can lead to all kinds of vague complaints without obvious cause.
Some of these complaints are so bad that someone can no longer function in society.
PTSD symptoms that are common:
Insomnia
Anxietys Concentration Disorders
Irritability
Anger Outbursts
When a trauma is not properly processed, it settles in the body. However, this need not be immediately noticeable. A war, rape, accident or other violent event of 20 years ago can later manifest itself in PTSD phenomena. There are very few people who can then make the link with the event of the past. It often takes a long time to find someone who recognizes the symptoms and can refer trauma victims to the right person. When a man is attacked, he has three choices: flee, fight or freeze. All 3 can be effective depending on the situation. Sometimes fighting is the best solution, sometimes fleeing, but also freezing can be extremely effective. After a violent event (trauma), we are not able to shake it off , literally. For example, by vibrating. With this, we release physically accumulated tension. Why does this often not work? People building …
People build tension in the case of trauma. Depending on the outcome, we may either discharge this or not. In humans, there are often all kinds of emotions involved. Often we want to shake the tension loosely, but we are ashamed of it. When we experience a violent event, we brace ourselves, as it were, ready for a reaction. Think, for example, of a car accident. Anyone who’s ever seen a hit-and-run knows what I’m talking about. There’s a rush of adrenaline rushing through your body and you can often do no other than wait for the blow. We store this energy in our bodies. When we have to fight or flee, it often turns out that we are stronger or faster than we ever thought possible. By fighting or fleeing, we’re discharging, as it were. However, some of the energy may still be left behind. It gets really annoying when we freeze. If we freeze, all tension can settle in the body. Freezing can besp us for worse…
Freezing can save us for worse and make us get it out alive. Freezing may be the best solution. Our body takes over and chooses the best solution it sees. However, many people who freeze are ashamed of this and especially to let go of the unbuilt tension. Recognizing and processing trauma in time can prevent worse and save a lot of suffering. There are several care workers who specialize in trauma processing, each with its own methods.
Phobia When a particular situation should not normally instill fear in you and you still panic, block or exhibit physical stress reactions, you have an in-real fear. If you spend more than 2 hours a day worrying about such panic situations, it is called a phobia. People with phobia are afraid of specific things, animals or situations. This fear can be accompanied by physical phenomena such as heavy sweating, palpitations, a pressing sensation on the chest and feelings of panic. Even though the person in question knows that his fear is unfounded, fear almost always wins from this science. A lot of people have unfounded fears. However, a phobia is only spoken of when fear severely impedes daily life.
There are 2 types of phobias: Someone with a single or specific phobia is afraid of one particular thing, animal or situation. This includes fear of spiders, the dentist, fear of heights, but also for example white buttons or butterflies. There is a social phobia when someone is very afraid to do things in front of others. The fear of ‘going off’ or being embarrassed is so great that social situations – giving a presentation, but also visiting others – are avoided as much as possible. It’s also called social anxiety disorder. Hardly any research has been done on the biological backgrounds of phobias. The social phobia is probably biologically very similar to the panic disorder: again, the disturbed action of norepinephrine and the serotonin system is assumed. With the right treatment, an anxiety disorder can often improve greatly.
Treatment may include medications (antidepressants or sedatives) or cognitive behavioral therapy, or a combination of both. Cognitive therapy responds to the patient’s thinking pattern and makes it realise that the feeling of anxiety is the result of a misinterpretation of physical phenomena, such as an accelerated heart rate. Formulating a more realistic interpretation is part of cognitive therapy. Behavioral therapy for specific phobia is aimed at exposure of the patient to the subject of his phobia, in order to reduce the anxiety symptoms.
