Therapy is not the answer, it's just one way out of many possible ways, in my opinion. I think the answer is to find meaning and build resilience within yourself - some do that in therapy, some prefer other ways. Now I may be entirely wrong because, even though I know about the Holocaust, I don't know anyone who was directly impacted by it. But from what I've read and from what I understand, it sounds like these people had to process the pain on some level while they were still experiencing it, if they wanted to survive. I was very touched by Frankl's story - he was one of the survivors and talked about the importance of finding meaning in order to survive such atrocities. He later developed a type of existential therapy based on his experience. But I think that the Holocaust was an extreme, something unthinkable. Most of us never go through that level of trauma - and I don't think that makes smaller traumas any less important. Sure, this helps to put things into perspective, we can be thankful for being alive, for being healthy, for being free - but our own personal histories can make their own types of wounds and scars. I don't find it helpful to dismiss these by comparing them to larger-scale traumas. Your pain is yours and it's real, and in my opinion that males it worth working with.
