Developmental trauma—caused by chronic stress, neglect, or emotional unavailability in childhood—can shape your self-esteem, relationships, and emotional responses well into adulthood. You may struggle with trust, boundaries, or emotional regulation without realizing the root cause.
Many adults minimize or overlook early trauma because it wasn’t “dramatic.” But repeated emotional wounds can have long-term impact. Healing begins with understanding how past experiences influence present behavior. At KS Counsellor & More, we help clients gently unpack their histories and develop healthy patterns, moving from survival to self-growth.
