Psychological and Physiological Trauma Research
Seize Your Journeys _______________________ Traumatic stress is found in many competent, healthy, strong, good people. No one can completely protect themselves from traumatic experiences. Many people have long-lasting problems following exposure to trauma. Up to 8% of persons will have PTSD at some time in their lives. People who react to traumas are not going crazy. What is happening to them is part of a set of common symptoms and problems that are connected with being in a traumatic situation, and thus, is a normal reaction to abnormal events and experiences. Having symptoms after a traumatic event is NOT a sign of personal weakness. Given exposure to a trauma that is bad enough, probably all people would develop PTSD. By understanding trauma symptoms better, a person can become less fearful of them and better able to manage them. By recognizing the effects of trauma and knowing more about symptoms, a person will be better able to decide about getting treatment. _____________
"...traumatized people are frequently mistreated in the mental health system. Because of the number and complexity of their symptoms, their treatment is often fragmented and incomplete. Because of their characteristic difficulties with close relationships, they are vulnerable to become re-victimized by caregivers. They may become engaged in ongoing, destructive interactions, in which the medical...system replicates the behavior of the abusive family." (Judith Lewis Herman, M.D., from Trauma and Recovery-The Aftermath of Violence-from Domestic Abuse to Political Terror (1992,p.123) _______________________

Your Research interests are our Quests
We are honored and privileged by your visit to our website! The multidimensional eliptical orbit of the infinity circle depicts our logo imagery by design, illustrating the life cycles of human development, journeying from in-utero and birth throughout the developmental lifespan. Our perspective is from a holistic integrative view, asserting a basic point of departure about human nature...that we are all born with a divine spark. Following birth, myriad life force dynamics happen that impede or foster ones individual and personal growth—both psychologically and physically. 
Our vision and focus are at the nexus of trauma etiology as
manifested during these intermittent life cycle stages.
Specifically, we are tracking PTSD, dissociation and their
comorbidities throughout the developmental lifespan. We are following the
holistic path to assess and consider the role of wellness,
resiliency and spirituality as essential and integral parts for
achieving optimal health and Oneness--the synergy of mind, body,
spirituality of the soul. We are mindful of the importance that
self-care and resilience affords in the recovery from trauma and
traumatic events. These events impact traumatically on our First
Responders, who with neither question nor hesitation, engage the
landscape of traumatic events, giving emergency mental health
support and intervention, aid, comfort and assistance to those
affected by the man-made and natural disasters. 9/11, the Asian
tsunami, Katrina, Iraq and Afghanistan and the current
Middle-East conflict are rendering new meanings to PTSD,
Dissociation, trauma and recovery.
Recovery from trauma and traumatic stress are essential to our well being. Because trauma is also complex, myriad points of departure are used for addressing and aiding in recovery. One such aid has been the use of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). EMDR has not only been useful in treating PTSD, Dissociation and their co-morbidities, but shortens traditional therapies by years, often becoming successful in just a few sessions by a trained and certified EMDR therapist. At Life Cycle Journeys, we will seek to mindfully become a leading provider in and of the ongoing and continual search for pathways to assist in the recovery from the overwhelming nature of Psychological and Physiological Trauma.
