Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
After living through or witnessing a traumatic event, the mind keeps replaying it as if it were still happening.
PTSD often follows war, natural disasters, or physical or sexual assault. Healing is possible — the goal is not to forget, but to remember without being overwhelmed.
Common symptoms
- —Intrusive memories, flashbacks and nightmares
- —Avoiding places that remind you of the event
- —Emotional numbness
- —Persistent negative beliefs and thoughts
- —Being easily startled, irritable or angry

How we work on it
Trauma-focused CBT helps the brain reprocess the event so it stops intruding on the present. We work at your pace, with safety and stabilization as the foundation before any deeper processing.
