Trauma and PTSD Treatment

If you’ve been through a traumatic event and experience feelings of fear, helplessness, or other distressing symptoms that affect your daily life, know that you’re not alone. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a treatable condition, and at Ramsay Mental Health, we’re here to provide compassionate, evidence-based care to support you on your path to recovery.

Understanding Trauma and PTSD

Trauma is any deeply distressing or life-threatening event that can leave a lasting impact, often making you feel unsafe or powerless. PTSD is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. This can include things such as accidents, natural disasters, violence, or other severe incidents that challenge one’s sense of security.

Common Symptoms of PTSD

• Flashbacks or intrusive memories of the traumatic event
• Nightmares or distressing dreams
• Avoidance of reminders associated with the trauma
• Negative thoughts or feelings about yourself or the world
• Persistent feelings of hypervigilance or being "on edge"
• Difficulty sleeping or focusing
• Heightened irritability or outbursts of anger
