Type B Trauma
Trauma Type B refers to the bad things that happen that overwhelm our emotional and relational capacity. The experiences of Type B traumas cause our emotional and relational circuitry to shut down. Our brain enters “survival mode” and is primarily interested in trying to help us stay alive.
Type B trauma includes the kinds of things that we usually think about as being traumatic. These include things like: abuse (verbal, emotional, physical or sexual), violence, or the experience of catastrophic natural disaster.[1]
History
