Trauma and the development of PTSD can significantly impact brain function, leading to learning difficulties. These challenges arise because trauma affects key brain areas like the amygdala, hippocampus, and prefrontal cortex, which are vital for memory, focus, and concentration. For example, an overactive amygdala heightens stress, while a smaller hippocampus impairs memory and learning. Additionally, reduced prefrontal cortex activity disrupts decision-making and emotional regulation.
Helping Hands provides support through therapy and personalized assistance to address these challenges, offering a compassionate space to promote healing and learning recovery.
