Freedom After Decades: Healing From Trauma That Lasted 45 Years

People carry trauma for years — sometimes decades — unaware they aren't emotionally free. Advanced trauma therapies make emotional freedom possible. Below, Marty courageously shares how trauma therapy helped him release wounds that shaped his life for more than 45 years. 

These are his words. 

"I have been working with Kaleigh [my trauma therapist] for the last 15 months to help me resolve the multiple traumas in my life. The main primary trauma was caused when I was the victim of a violent crime approximately 45 years ago when I lived in New Your City and was mugged at gunpoint. That incident changed my life by making me paranoid and feel on-edge by thinking somebody was always about to attack me. I felt it strongly whenever I drove into Phoenix which is known to be a high crime area. Kaleigh treated me with Thought Field Therapy [an advanced trauma healing modality] one time, and that fear disappeared completely. I remain very safety conscious at all times, but that emotional upset and feeling of being on-edge no longer exist. 

My second primary trauma was my 40 year marriage which was very difficult, disappointing and traumatic. I felt like I was used, abused and taken advantage of financially and sexually. I was in a codependent, destructive relationship that I felt trapped in until my wife died several years ago. My wife had many health problems that cost a lot of money, which devastated me financially, emotionally and otherwise. Because of all of her health problems, she was unable to have sex. Like many other men in this position, I suffered severe psychological and emotional pain that was many times worse than being the victim of the violent crime. Kaleigh treated me with her Thought Field Therapy one time and all of that mental and emotional pain disappeared. It felt like a heavy, wet blanket that was weighing on me for many years lifted away and I suddenly felt light, free, joyful, complete, grateful and calm, and hopeful. For the next two weeks I felt like I was flying.. 2025 was my year of liberation and I feel like a new person. 

I still have some lesser traumas that are old injuries which we continue to explore and work on. 

Kaleigh’s Thought Field Therapy has been extremely effective for me, and has performed many miracles in my life and continues to do so. I was living in prisons of my past which I could not have escaped on my own. I know of no other therapy that would have the ability to change my reality so easily, so quickly and so permanently. Kaleigh is an extremely knowledgeable, experienced, insightful, sensitive, inspired, gifted and outstanding trauma therapist with a lot of empathy. She is also an amazing, overall beautiful person and has been like an angel. She helped me recover from all my problems and is helping me move forward in
my life along my chosen path. She is a blessing sent to me by God. I feel very lucky and grateful to have her helping me which has improved my life tremendously."
