PTSD FAQ

Can you self-treat PTSD?
PTSD is a severe mental health disorder that requires professional treatment. During treatment, PTSD self care practices and coping skills for triggers will be taught. These could include mindfulness, deep breathing exercises, and grounding techniques such as yoga and meditation.

We offer trauma-focused therapies tailored to the unique needs of each client we serve to help create the best plan of treatment. Some of the trauma specific services we offer include EMDR, Accelerated Resolution, trauma-focused CBT and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. 

PTSD can cause a number of distressing symptoms that affect one’s mental and physical health. Some of these include anxiety, depression, shame, guilt, flashbacks or nightmares, stomachaches, headaches, muscle & joint pain, substance abuse and self-harm. 

There is no quick fix for PTSD, but with proper treatment and support clients can learn to manage symptoms and live a life free of being controlled by trauma.
