Yes; trauma feels like a heavyweight, serious business word reserved for the worst experiences of humankind, but in psychology it's used in a much wider context. For one, it's the result of a subjective experience, that is, what may traumatize one person may be someone else's day job. I do like that the wiki page calls out in the first paragraph that witnessing traumatic events indirectly on TV may be distressing, but aren't considered traumatic experiences. And there are some people that use it too casually / colloquially.
