My go-to approach for helping people in PTSD/trauma therapy is CBT and EMDR. I find the best benefit in both of these methods because they allow the client to address thoughts and feelings related to trauma in a logical way. With the use of EMDR, I can address underlying thoughts and feelings that have been repressed but continue to negatively impact one's overall thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
I teach the following tools in PTSD/trauma therapy:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in PTSD/trauma therapy when there is a reduction in the raw emotion that comes up when they are talking about traumatic experiences, or when the client has removed the feelings of guilt and stops feeling like they are at fault.
Clients can supplement their time in PTSD/trauma therapy with the development of effective coping and calming skills, as well as actively engaging in physical and social supportive activities.
To prepare for their first PTSD/trauma therapy session, someone can jot down all of the emotional challenges they continue to experience from the past trauma, as well as keep a record of triggers and experiences they have that lead to experiencing PTSD/trauma symptoms.
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.
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.
The symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can vary but often include:
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.
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.
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.
The success rate of therapy for PTSD depends entirely on the individual’s symptoms, commitment to attending sessions, and personal abilities.
