About Traumacentre Belgium
Adults and children are traumatised every day.
Trauma can be triggered by one-off events and experiences, such as an accident, a hold-up, a natural disaster, or the loss of someone dear.
But trauma can also be rooted in experiences that go on for longer periods, such as sexual abuse, neglect, and teasing and baiting.
These experiences and events have a profound impact on the person, to the extent that it is difficult, if not impossible, for the individual to function normally at various levels.
Trauma Centre Belgium comprises a team of specialists, who are ready to draw on their experience and knowledge to provide reliable treatment with all the necessary support and backing.
This service does not just involve crisis relief, but ongoing treatment and therapy.

In addition to the above, we would like to stress that our team is also ready to provide assistance to members of specialised teams. In this respect we are thinking of such people as members of the police forces, counsellors or relief workers. Dealing with terrible events and the victims of these events can also leave deep scars in relief workers, and these scars should not be ignored or minimised.
We’re all surrounded by the people we live with and traumatic experiences can change systems and patterns that are considered normal in our daily life. This can lead to misunderstandings, a difficult communication or dysfunction.
After experiencing a traumatic event, the involved parties often try to give their own meaning to what exactly happened. Sometimes these meanings can cause serious obstructions in daily life (fear, compulsion,…)
The traumatized persons enduring this will find ways to deal with these obstructions just so they can cope and live with them. Unofrtunately, these ways might cause new problems on a long-term base.
The necessity of treatment if therefore inevitable.
Our team analysis the case of every individual client thoroughly and pays attention to body language and composure.
