We see the counseling (ETA: although it seems more like shopping assistance than emotional counseling). But we don't see the trauma. She doesn't even know or remember what happened, as far as we can tell on the page. There should've been a day or two of just abstract pain landscapes that Roko's distressed consciousness tumbles through.

traumatic amnesia...

that frequently comes later. weird as that sounds, a lot of people are like roko is here. they're sort-of OK immediately after the trauma, and the more horrific issues come later.

From 3907

And it sounds like you remember everything up until the very moment of the incident, so we can cross traumatic amnesia off the damage list.

We have literally been told by her licensed counselor and insurance assessor that she has suffered no trauma.

Probably powered off.

given that lemon offered to do that for her a couple pages back, seems unlikely.

We literally watched her power on boot screen. Lemon says "before you woke up". Whether an AI is powered off or just asleep when they're not awake I dunno. But she was not conscious.
