Childhood trauma can leave lasting effects on mental health well into adulthood. One of these potential effects is depression. At Darien Wellness in New Haven, Connecticut, our team of experienced clinicians understands the profound connection between early adverse experiences and long-term emotional struggles. Through specialized trauma therapy and individualized treatment plans, we help clients address and heal the wounds caused by childhood trauma, paving the way for a healthier, more fulfilling life.

The Impact of Childhood Trauma on Adult Mental Health

Many adults who struggle with depression unknowingly carry the emotional weight of unresolved childhood trauma. This trauma can manifest in a variety of ways, including low self-esteem, difficulty forming relationships, or chronic feelings of sadness. A constant low mood and disconnect from society can then become chronic depression. The good news is that therapy can address both depression and the underlying trauma to provide relief.

At Darien Wellness, we offer trauma therapy that blends evidence-based approaches such as EMDR and CBT, both of which are proven effective in treating trauma-related depression.
