Trauma/PTSD therapy FAQs

What is PTSD/trauma therapy?

At Thriveworks, Trauma/PTSD therapy involves dedicated efforts to address and navigate through past and/or recent traumatic events. Therapists specializing in trauma create a secure environment to process and heal from these experiences, aiming to reduce trauma-related symptoms and enhance overall quality of life.

How does PTSD/trauma therapy work?

Our Thriveworks providers use Trauma/PTSD therapy treatments like eye movement desensitization and reprocessing EMDR, CBT, and exposure therapy with the goal of helping clients process the traumatic events they have experienced so that they can to start feeling safe and secure again.

Symptoms of PTSD

The symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can vary but often include:

  • Flashbacks and distressing memories of the traumatic event
  • Nightmares and sleep disturbances
  • Intense anxiety and irritability
  • Avoidance of reminders of the trauma
  • Negative changes in mood and thought patterns
  • Increased arousal, like difficulty concentrating or exaggerated startle response

How do you overcome PTSD triggers?

The best way to overcome PTSD triggers is to seek the assistance of a professional therapist, such as those at Thriveworks, who can help you to understand and treat your PTSD triggers.

In most cases, a therapist who specializes in Trauma/PTSD therapy is the best type of mental health professional to address the symptoms of PTSD.

Is PTSD/trauma therapy conducted in person or online?

PTSD/trauma therapy at Thriveworks is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long should you go to therapy for PTSD?

If a client is working through a single traumatic event that occurred as an adult, trauma or PTSD therapy may only take a few months, but in general, it can take a year or more to effectively treat trauma symptoms and PTSD. The duration of treatment is highly dependent on the client and the severity of their symptoms.

I just started seeing Paula St John. I believe today was my fourth session however I do want to emphasize since I've started seeing her. I know that I made the right choice with choosing y'all and she is a wonderful therapist she listens I and I feel she understands me and I like her feedback it's honest as I want to be told the truth, so I know what areas to improve in my life I feel I should have taken the step of seeing a therapist long ago as I have had many events go on throughout my life like trauma stress depression and most of all anxiety. She did introduce me to DBT dialectical behavior therapy which I have been doing it is very difficult still for me to do as it is hard for me to concentrate and just relax in general but we are working on that. I do want to have an actual session with her where she's directing me in the session versus telling me about it and then I do it after we end our regular session because I want to make sure I'm doing it right in general I do like to meditate like I said it's a very difficult for me I do feel a lot of tension and it's very hard to relax and I know it's Mind Over Matter I would highly recommend Thriveworks and I've already mentioned it to some friends of mine. I know I live in San Antonio and she's based out of the Dallas area however, I would love to make an appointment one day and do an in-person session with her along with my seven-year-old daughter and make that just a trip out there. I look forward to my sessions. They really do help! Seeking personal help with a knowledgeable experienced therapist of many years does help. Paula St John is the perfect match for me in regards of what I'm going through.

She was so calming. It was easy to open up to her and talk about the way I've been feeling. Her voice alone was so therapeutic; I can't wait for next session
