Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition triggered by experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. Individuals with PTSD often experience flashbacks, nightmares, and severe anxiety.

- Trauma-Focused Evaluation: Detailed assessment to understand the type, severity, and duration of traumatic experiences and their impact.
- Medication Management: Prescription of medications like SSRIs or other treatments to reduce symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and hyperarousal.
- Trauma-Sensitive Therapies: Collaboration with trauma therapists who specialize in therapies like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for PTSD (CBT-P).
- Stress Reduction & Coping Strategies: Teaching mindfulness, grounding techniques, and other strategies to manage trauma-related symptoms.
