Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Support

PTSD can cause long-term despair.

PTSD can manifest in various ways, including intrusive memories, flashbacks, severe anxiety, and emotional distress. It is common for individuals with PTSD to feel isolated, overwhelmed, or unable to cope with daily life.

One common cause of PTSD results from combat or military trauma experiences by veterans and active-duty service members coping with the effects of the combat experiences.

Survivors of sexual violence or abuse can make it hard to process the trauma they experienced. Natural disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, or earthquakes, and serious accidents (car wrecks, incidents in the workplace) represent other causes of PTSD. People grieving the unexpected loss of a loved one due to violence or accidents are susceptible to PTSD.

Regardless of the cause, PTSD is life-changing, and without help, the traumatic experience can make navigating life challenging.

Therapy offers a means of healing from trauma.

At YCDI, we recognize that experiencing trauma can profoundly impact every aspect of life. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is a serious mental health condition that can develop after an individual has been exposed to a traumatic event.

We aim to provide a safe and supportive environment where you can explore your feelings and begin the healing process. Our team of mental health professionals specializes in trauma and PTSD, bringing a wealth of knowledge and compassionate care to your healing journey.

Clients will experience a nonjudgmental and confidential space where they can express their feelings and experiences freely. Recognizing the interconnectedness of mind and body, we use a holistic approach to therapy that addresses emotional and physical well-being.

We also offer in-person and virtual sessions to accommodate your preferences and needs.

Here is an outline of our approach.

Comprehensive Assessment: We begin with a thorough assessment to understand your unique experiences, symptoms, and needs.
Individual Therapy: Our licensed therapists utilize evidence-based approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET).
Trauma-Informed Care: We prioritize a trauma-informed approach, ensuring that our therapy environment is safe, supportive, and sensitive to your experiences.
Coping Strategies: We provide practical tools to help you manage symptoms, including grounding techniques, relaxation strategies, and self-care practices.
Support Groups: Join our group therapy sessions to connect with others who have experienced similar traumas, fostering a sense of community and shared healing.
