Post-Traumatic Stress  Disorder

Compassionate and Comprehensive Care for PTSD

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event, such as a natural disaster, serious accident, terrorist act, war/combat, rape, or other violent personal assault. PTSD is characterized by intense, disturbing thoughts and feelings related to the experience that last long after the traumatic event has ended. Individuals with PTSD may relive the event through flashbacks or nightmares, feel sadness, fear or anger, and may feel detached or estranged from others.


PTSD can affect anyone who has gone through a traumatic event, and it can develop immediately after the event or years later. It can interfere with daily activities and relationships, making it challenging to live a fulfilling life. Recognizing the signs of PTSD and seeking timely treatment can help individuals manage their symptoms, improve their quality of life, and regain a sense of normalcy. Effective treatment can help individuals process their trauma, reduce the intensity of symptoms, and develop coping strategies.
