What is Anxiety Therapy?

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), commonly referred to as shell shock or combat fatigue syndrome. It is a lasting consequence of traumatic ordeals that give rise to intense fear, helplessness, or horror. People with PTSD have symptoms for more than one month and can't function as well as before the event that triggered the event occurred. Examples of things that can lead to PTSD include sexual or physical assault, a loved one's sudden death, an accident, a war, or a natural disaster.


If you feel that you may suffer from PTSD, when you decide that you are ready for change we can help. Give us a call today to get started.

How Does Individual Therapy Work? 

People with PTSD will experience feelings of panic or extreme fear, similar to the fear they experienced during a traumatic event. A person with PTSD experiences sleeping difficulties, irritability, and lack of concentration. They become easily startled and continually looking for signs of danger. As a result, if a person with PTSD becomes triggered, there may be intense emotional or physical reactions. For example, such as sweating, heart palpitations, or panic.


We have the experience to help those who have PTSD. Give us a call today. We can help. There is hope for living a happy, productive life. 












What Types of Treatments Do You Do in Individual Therapy?

Instances of post-traumatic stress disorder dramatically increases among our military: up to thirty percent of women or men in active war zones go on to develop PTSD. Rates of PTSD among the military vary depending on circumstances such as what branch of the military they served in


According The National Center for PTSD (a division of the US Department of Veteran Affairs), roughly 5% of men and 10% of women living in the United States will develop PTSD at some point during their lifetime. This accounts for 6-7 million adults in the United States today that suffer from PTSD, but even children can develop PTSD. This number is expected to rise due to the increasing unrest in our world today. Most individuals show early symptoms of PTSD shortly after experiencing a traumatic event, but there can be a delayed PTSD reaction months or even years later. (ptsdalliance.org)

When Do I Need Anxiety Therapy?

Treatment with PTSD usually begins about two weeks after a traumatic experience. Most people have symptoms in the first few weeks after the event. It's best to start with psychological treatment rather than meds. If symptoms persist for more than a few weeks, a doctor or a mental health professional may recommend starting treatment. Most effective therapies involve talking therapy, but medication can be prescribed. Drug treatment is not recommended within four weeks of symptoms appearing. If the severity of a person's distress can not be managed on its own by psychological means, it is usually best to use medication.

Symptoms of PTSD may worsen. Dealing with them now may help to stop them from getting worse in the future. Getting help with your PTSD can help improve your family's life. Finding out more about what treatments are working can make it easier to get help and lead to better outcomes.

8 million adults in the U.S. have PTSD in any given year. See your health care provider or mental health professional right away if you have frequent upsetting thoughts.

For example, a person who has PTSD may say things such as:

  • I don't want to think (or talk) about it.
  • I can't get it out of my head.
  • I feel like I'm losing my mind.






What are the symptoms of Anxiety

Experts have created three categories (or clusters) of PTSD symptoms. Symptoms will generally persist for at least a month and for many survivors, these signs represent their first struggles with anxiety. The symptoms fall into the categories of re-experiencing the traumatic event, avoidance of reminders of the trauma and responses of hyperarousal.

Trauma depends on many factors, including a person's perception of and proximity to the event. In general, traumatic events expose the child to death, serious injury, or violence. Here are some examples of events that could lead to PTSD in children: car accidents, natural disasters, etc.












Ready To Get Started in Treating Your Anxiety?

Some people with PTSD have symptoms throughout their lifetime due to prolonged exposure to trauma. Trauma can cause systemic, hormonal changes to the chemistry of the brain. 

Complex PTSD is particularly common in people who have suffered childhood abuse, sexual abuse, or neglect. It may also contribute later to PTSD and substance abuse, eating disorders, inappropriate sexual activity, and other behavioral problems.
