    What is PTSD?

    Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a terrifying event. While it's normal to have difficulty coping after trauma, PTSD involves symptoms that persist for months or years and significantly interfere with daily life.

    PTSD can affect anyone—veterans, survivors of assault, accident victims, first responders, and others who have experienced trauma. The good news is that PTSD is treatable, and most people who receive proper care experience significant improvement.

    At Empathy Health Clinic, our trauma-informed team provides a safe, supportive environment for healing. We use evidence-based treatments including EMDR, trauma-focused therapy, and medication management when appropriate.

    Common PTSD Symptoms

    PTSD symptoms fall into four categories: intrusive memories, avoidance, negative changes in thinking and mood, and changes in physical and emotional reactions.

    Intrusive memories, flashbacks, or nightmares about the trauma
    Avoiding people, places, or situations that remind you of the event
    Negative changes in mood—feeling detached, hopeless, or emotionally numb
    Hypervigilance and being easily startled
    Difficulty sleeping or concentrating
    Irritability, angry outbursts, or aggressive behavior
    Feelings of guilt, shame, or self-blame
    Loss of interest in activities you used to enjoy
