My son has a great deal of trauma too. It has to be processed. Talking about it may help. I really don't know.
They say that children who act out traumatic events in their play can heal and move past it. That has been applied to adults who have suffered great trauma. They're asked to retell the event(s) repeatedly in great detail. I imagine you'd want to work with an experienced therapist.
