Problems and Disorders

Since childhood we have built defenses to be able to adapt to our environment. With these defenses we can achieve a vital balance that allows us to move forward and live the life we want or have to lead. However, there are vital factors that can break this balance, break our defensive structure and leave us totally exposed. One of the symptoms that this has happened is when we have an anxiety attack.

Anxiety/panic disorders

Depression

The most characteristic symptom of depression is that a person feels sunken, paralyzed, as if they had an overwhelming weight that inhibited their vitality, making it impossible for them to live fully.
Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) is a psychological condition that originates from prolonged exposure to trauma, primarily of an interpersonal nature, such as chronic abuse or violence. Unlike conventional PTSD, C-PTSD involves a variety of symptoms that affect areas such as identity, emotional regulation, and interpersonal relationships. People with C-PTSD may experience difficulties in constructing a coherent self-image, dysfunctional patterns in relationships, and problems with emotional regulation. Often associated with early childhood trauma, C-PTSD requires specialized therapeutic approaches, such as trauma therapy, to address the complexities of the condition and foster recovery over time.​
