PTSD, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. It’s characterized by a range of symptoms that can interfere with daily life and functioning.
Psychotherapy:
Medications:
A PTSD diagnosis requires the presence of specific symptoms from four categories: intrusive thoughts, avoidance, negative changes in thinking and mood, and changes in physical and emotional reactions, lasting for more than one month and causing significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning. A certified clinician may use validated screening tools and questionnaires to aid in the diagnosis. Additionally, the assessment includes ruling out other potential causes for the symptoms. Neuropsychological testing provides the most in-depth diagnosis methods, allowing patients to gain a better understanding of their mental health status.
With support from our expert providers you can go…
With trauma-focused therapy and relaxation techniques, an individual can move from constant hypervigilance and feeling on edge to experiencing a greater sense of safety and security in their surroundings.
Through therapies like Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), someone can transition from being overwhelmed by intrusive memories and flashbacks to developing better emotional regulation and coping skills.
With exposure therapy and gradual desensitization, a person can go from avoiding triggers and reminders of their trauma to actively engaging in life activities and pursuing meaningful goals.
By incorporating techniques such as imagery rehearsal therapy and sleep hygiene practices, an individual can move from experiencing distressing nightmares and insomnia to enjoying more restful and uninterrupted sleep.
Through group therapy, support networks, and rebuilding relationships, someone can transform from isolating themselves due to the symptoms of PTSD to feeling connected to others and supported in their journey of healing.
