PTSD & Trauma
Healing from trauma is possible — you deserve support on that journey.
What is PTSD & Trauma?
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. Trauma affects people differently — not everyone who experiences trauma develops PTSD, but for those who do, the impact can be profound and long-lasting. With compassionate, evidence-based care, recovery is absolutely possible.
Common Symptoms
- Intrusive memories, flashbacks, or nightmares
- Emotional numbness or feeling detached from others
- Avoidance of reminders of the trauma
- Hypervigilance — being constantly on alert
- Irritability, anger, or difficulty concentrating
- Negative thoughts about yourself or the world
- Sleep disturbances
Common Causes
- Experiencing or witnessing a life-threatening event
- Physical or sexual assault
- Childhood abuse or neglect
- Natural disasters or accidents
- Combat or war exposure
- Sudden loss of a loved one
