Common approaches to Trauma/PTSD therapy

Hear from Kimberly Wabik Rivera Ford, Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW)

View Kimberly Wabik Rivera Ford's profile

What is your go-to approach for PTSD/trauma therapy?

My go-to approach for treating someone with trauma is to meet them where they are. I have training in psychodynamic therapy, cognitive processing therapy, and DBT, and I work with clients to figure out which approach will help them best.

What tools do you teach in PTSD/trauma therapy?

I teach people new ways to think and be more comfortable in their bodies.

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in PTSD/trauma therapy?

Clients are making progress if they have a reduction in trauma symptoms (changes in mood and cognition, flashbacks, sleep disturbance).

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement PTSD/trauma therapy?

Clients can supplement their work in therapy by pushing themselves to grow outside of therapy.

What should someone do to prepare for starting PTSD/trauma therapy?

Clients can identify what they want to work on and be committed to working on it.

Working with Samantha has been an excellent experience over the past 9 months. She is a passionate, dedicated professional who was a huge help in alleviating my anxiety and holistically improving my mental health. Her insights were clear and actionable, and improved my daily quality of life. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone who is struggling with interpersonal relationships, family issues, or anxiety.
