Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a highly stressful or traumatic event, such as an accident, abuse, war, or a distressing medical experience.

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 online CBT program includes tools and exercises designed to help people who experience symptoms related to post-traumatic stress. With the guidance of a therapist, you can gradually explore difficult thoughts, memories, and situations connected to past experiences in a structured and supportive way.

CBT approaches for trauma-related symptoms often focus on understanding how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact. Many people find that learning new ways to respond to reminders of past events can help reduce distress and improve their sense of control.

Work is done gradually and at a pace that feels manageable for you. Over time, many people experience fewer anxiety reactions and feel better able to move forward in their daily lives.

"I have struggled with maintaining therapists because of my employment status. Finding an option that considers my income and prevents me from having to find new providers every time I move has been incredible.

I was fortunate to find a therapist I connected with after just one meeting, but I also realized that changing therapists is not a complicated process. Sometimes you don't click with someone, and it can be challenging to continue searching. Knowing that trasition is simple gives me the confidence to keep investing in my mental health and wellbeing.

I have always had difficulty journaling (my rational brain knows its value but the emotional brain feels stumped), but this platform's format of questions has made it much easier to feel the emotional benefits.

Thank you online-therapy.com"
