Intergenerational trauma has been clinically recognised for over eighty years. Yet for many people seeking psychological support, it remains difficult to identify. There is often no single event to point to, no clear personal history of trauma, and no family narrative that explains the distress.

Instead, people present with symptoms such as chronic anxiety, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, depression, or a pervasive sense of threat, recognised clinically as common effects of intergenerational trauma. The body appears to be reacting to something that the mind cannot consciously remember, sometimes rooted in a traumatic event that began decades prior.

To explore how intergenerational trauma can shape emotional responses across generations, read our latest blog:

We asked a simple question with a complex answer.⠀
⠀
What is trauma?⠀
⠀
In this series, we are sharing real responses from the public to help bust myths and destigmatise trauma. ⠀
⠀
“Trauma is the hugely complex and nuanced inner experience that arises from singular or multiple/chronic constellations of seismic life events. It is not defined by the external circumstances but by how those events reverberate through one’s body, mind and relationships, altering one’s sense of self and relationships to others.”⠀
⠀
There is no single definition. No hierarchy. No right or wrong way to experience it.⠀
⠀
What does trauma mean to you?⠀

Dissociation can feel confusing, scary, or isolating, like parts of you are disconnected, or like you’re watching life happen from the outside.

At Khiron Clinics, we are deeply informed by the work of experts like Janina Fisher and use approaches informed by her work to help you feel safe and understood. Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST) is a “parts” model that gently supports the different parts of your mind, helping you reconnect with yourself and reduce self-destructive patterns.

We also draw on the Theory of Structural Dissociation, which shows that these protective parts aren’t signs of weakness; they’re adaptations shaped by your experiences. Our focus is on working with your nervous system, not just talking about trauma, so you can feel safety in your body as well as your mind.

What happens when someone arrives to therapy without hope?

When they feel defeated. Exhausted. Certain that nothing will really help.

In our new Meet the Team interview, Day Clinic Clinical Lead Anja Frykegaard shares what she sees time and time again, and the quiet but powerful moment when something begins to shift.

Posture softens. Eye contact returns. Laughter comes back.
People start to take up space again.

Sometimes they cannot hold the hope at the start.
So we hold it for them, until they begin to feel it themselves.

The full interview is now live on our website.

Our Meet the Team series offers insight into the people behind Khiron Clinics, all working in a nervous system informed, Polyvagal informed environment, from clinicians to social workers, support staff, gardeners and everyone who helps create safety and healing each day.

Khiron Clinics' work is founded in breaking-edge scientific research about trauma and the nervous system, but it’s also rooted in lived experience. We understand how overwhelming trauma can feel, and how abandonment or early life adversity shapes the mind and body.

Our approach combines evidence-based interventions with compassionate, person-centred care, helping clients feel safe, regulated, and supported on their healing journey.

At Khiron Clinics, trauma is understood, validated, and treated with both science and heart.

The accessibility of information on mental health has broken down barriers to treatment and dissolved stigma for so many. But mental health myths continue to disrupt people's ideas of their own and their loved ones' experiences.

At Khiron Clinics, we meet clients who are completely new to the language of trauma and mental health, as well as those who have been through a revolving door of treatment with little success. Our approach focuses on creating safety in the body, understanding trauma as survival, and supporting nervous system regulation, because awareness is only the first step; healing comes through practice and felt safety.

Healing doesn’t always look like moving forward.
Sometimes it looks like slowing down.

Sometimes it looks like resting, pausing, or feeling more than you expected to.

That doesn’t mean you’re going backwards.
It means your nervous system is doing the work it couldn’t do before.

This journey isn’t linear.
But it is still healing.

Eating disorders are rarely just about food. They often emerge from trauma, emotional dysregulation, and complex patterns formed over years, sometimes decades. Research shows that sexual, physical, and emotional trauma, neglect, or bullying can all contribute, and many individuals with eating disorders also experience other psychiatric conditions.

These experiences shape the nervous system, making it harder to regulate emotions, and eating disorder behaviours often become a way to cope or self-soothe.

At Khiron Clinics, our trauma-informed approach addresses the root causes, not just symptoms, helping patients rebuild emotional regulation, resilience, and self-understanding. Recovery is complex, but with the right support, transformation is possible.

What is trauma?

In this clip, Dr Scott Lyons Dr. Scott Lyons offers a powerful perspective. Trauma is the great fragmenter. It quietly splits our relationship with ourselves, with time, with our past, and with how much space we feel allowed to take up in the world.

It can leave us feeling divided inside, disconnected in relationships, and separated from a sense of wholeness that once felt natural.

Healing is not about forcing ourselves back into who we were before. It is about gently reconnecting the parts that were fractured, at a pace that feels safe, with support and care.

At Khiron Clinics, we believe trauma is deeply personal. There is no single definition, and no hierarchy of pain.

We would love to hear from you.

Many people like Margot have lived their whole life carrying, often unexplained, traumatic symptoms of the past. From somatic complaints to behavioural patterns, and mental distress to formal diagnoses, the effects of trauma are wide-ranging. At Khiron Clinics, we often see people caught in a revolving door of diagnoses, treatments, and persistent symptoms, without lasting relief. We believe this is largely due to conventional care focusing on surface-level symptoms rather than the nervous system itself. At Khiron, our trauma-informed approach works with the nervous system, not against it, addressing the root causes and helping patients reclaim their wellbeing.
