Understanding PTSD: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can develop in individuals who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event or series of events. Symptoms often include intrusive memories (flashbacks, nightmares), avoidance of reminders of the trauma, negative changes in thoughts and mood, and hyperarousal (e.g., irritability, difficulty sleeping, exaggerated startle response). While many people experience trauma, not everyone develops PTSD; however, for those who do, it can be debilitating. Early intervention is crucial for better recovery outcomes [1]. If you're seeking PTSD therapy, our clinic offers specialized care.
Our Approach: We utilize trauma-informed care and evidence-based therapies like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)3 to help individuals process traumatic memories, reduce symptoms, and regain a sense of safety and control [5]. Many providers of trauma therapy in Massachusetts utilize these effective approaches.
