Understanding PTSD and Trauma

Trauma can follow an accident, violence, a loss, abuse, a medical event, or years in a high-stress role. PTSD can develop when the body and mind stay on alert long after the danger has passed.

That response is not weakness and it is not a character flaw. It is a recognized condition, and it is treatable. If any of this sounds like your experience, an evaluation is a reasonable next step.

Signs of PTSD

Intrusive memories or flashbacks
Nightmares or trouble sleeping
Avoiding people, places, or reminders

Feeling on edge or startling easily
Irritability or difficulty relaxing
Numbness or feeling disconnected

These can show up months or years after the event. You do not need to be certain it is PTSD before you call.

How We Treat PTSD and Trauma

Plans are built around the person, and often combine more than one approach.

EMDR

A structured, well-studied therapy that works with traumatic memories so they often feel less overwhelming over time. Several of our therapists are EMDR trained. Learn more

Trauma-Informed Therapy

Talk therapy with clinicians trained in trauma, who will not push you to share more than you are ready to. Learn more

Medication Management

Where it helps, psychiatric medication can ease sleep problems, anxiety, and low mood while therapy does its work. Learn more

A Safe Place to Heal

You set the pace. Our therapists build trust first and do not ask you to revisit more than you are ready for. If you have served in the military or worked as a first responder, we have providers with experience in that work. See our care for veterans.
