Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder that some people get after experiencing a threatening and painful event like an accident, sexual abuse, war, bad experience in health care etc.

If you have experienced a traumatic event in your life and are faced with flashbacks of this trauma, memory loss, feeling much more anxious and vigilant compared to before or avoiding things that remind you of the trauma, then you might be suffering from PTSD. Note that these symptoms often appear within a few weeks but it can also take years.

Our therapy for PTSD is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). With the guidance of your therapist and CBT for PTSD, you will work through the traumatic memories, maybe even visiting situations and/or places that remind you of your trauma. While this might sound painful, it has been proven in numerous research studies to be an effective way to overcome PTSD. This is done under controlled conditions guided by your therapist at a pace that suits you. The result? A dramatic decrease in your anxiety reactions and symptoms, allowing you to live a life free from past traumatic events.

"I like how you walk through the steps at your own pace. It’s helpful to have a visual of everything written down because I’m such a visual learner. Definitely have made improvements, but you have to be pretty self disciplined to carve out time to work on therapy stuff. My therapist does a live chat for the live sessions. It seems inefficient compared to calling, but I can see how it could be good for me to focus on one thing a week instead of talking about multiple things and not implementing any new strategies. Still worth a shot, I like the convenience of not going in person."

"I do like this service. Online Therapy is a wonderful option. It has allowed me to seek the professional help I badly needed even when I didn't really know where to start. I like the chat options offering chatroom, voice, and video. This has allowed me to ease into the service as I became more comfortable with my therapist. I also really like the CBT training. I'm someone that needs some structure in my life, and CBT really helps me stay focused on the right path. Overall, I have had an excellent experience."

"This program helped so much! I was able to do it on my own schedule which had been a significant barrier to in-person therapy in the past. After years of suffering I now feel like I understand what I need to do to help myself. I also understand it’s a practice and so is always a work in progress. I also know what to do should I experience an exacerbation in the future. Cannot recommend this evidence-based program enough!"
