Why Trauma Support Matters

Experiencing a flood can trigger intense feelings of loss, helplessness, and anxiety. These reactions are normal responses to traumatic events, but they don’t have to be faced alone. Our trauma support group provides:

  • A safe space to share your experiences without judgment
  • Professional guidance from a licensed trauma specialist
  • Connection with others who understand your struggles
  • Practical coping strategies for managing flood-related stress
  • Resources for continued healing and support

Join Us for Healing

You don’t have to navigate this difficult time alone. Whether you’re a flood victim still processing the loss, a first responder who witnessed the devastation, or someone whose life was impacted by the flooding, this group is for you.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do I need to attend both sessions?
No, there's no commitment required. You can attend one or both sessions based on your needs and availability. Each session is designed to be helpful on its own, while attending both can provide additional support and continuity in your healing process.
What if I'm not comfortable sharing my story?
Participation is entirely voluntary. You can join the group to listen and benefit from others' experiences without feeling pressured to share your own story. Our facilitator, Briana Sefcik, creates a safe, supportive environment where you can participate at your own comfort level.
