Inner child work therapy is a form of therapy in which you try to reconnect with your inner child. Now how do you define an inner child? You can think of the inner child as a part of our mind that stores all our emotional experiences from childhood. These are the psychological patterns we developed as a child that have still continued with us all this time.

Trauma can be defined as a deeply shocking or disturbing experience that affects your mental well being in a negative way. Just like a physical injury that leaves bodily damage, trauma is a psychological blow that leaves mental difficulties in its trace. Whether it’s problematic childhood, death of a loved one, a distressing accident or experience, trauma can really push you in a downward pull.
