Are you struggling with PTSD?

 

Most people will experience trauma in their lifetime whether it’s a car accident, abuse or neglect, the sudden death of a loved one, a violent criminal act, exposure to the violence of war, or a natural disaster.

​

While many people can recover from trauma over time with the love and support of family and friends and bounce back with resiliency, others may struggle with the effects of lasting trauma, which can cause a person to live with deep emotional pain, fear, confusion, or post-traumatic stress far after the event has passed.

​

In these circumstances, the support, guidance, and assistance of a therapist are fundamental to healing from trauma.

​

Trauma Symptoms

  • According to the four types of symptoms listed in the DSM-5

 

Avoidance Symptoms

  • Avoiding specific locations, sights, situations, and sounds that serve as reminders of the event

  • Anxiety, depression, numbness, or guilt

 

Re-experiencing Symptoms

  • Intrusive thoughts

  • Nightmares

  • Flashbacks

 

Hyper Arousal Symptoms

  • Sleep disturbances

 
Negative Mood and Cognition Symptoms
