Trauma and PTSD

Have you experienced a traumatic event that continues to cause you fear, helplessness, and other distressing symptoms? You're not alone. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a treatable condition, and we can help you find relief.

What is Trauma and PTSD?

Symptoms of PTSD:

  • Nightmares
  • Avoidance of reminders of the event
  • Negative thoughts or feelings about yourself or the world

  • Difficulty sleeping or concentrating.
