Therapy for trauma survivors
PTSD
You may be struggling with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) if you find yourself experiencing intense and distressing symptoms after exposure to a traumatic event, such as flashbacks, nightmares, and intrusive memories. These symptoms may make it difficult to go about your daily life and can significantly impact your relationships and overall well-being.
Acute Stress Disorder
You may be struggling with Acute Stress Disorder if you're experiencing significant distress and impairment following exposure to a traumatic event, lasting from three days to a month after the event. Symptoms may include intrusive memories, avoidance of reminders of the trauma, negative changes in mood and cognition, and increased arousal. I
Adjustment Disorder
You may be struggling with Adjustment Disorder if you're having difficulty coping with a stressful life event or change, such as divorce, job loss, or illness, and experiencing significant emotional or behavioral symptoms. These symptoms may include sadness, worry, irritability, difficulty concentrating, and changes in behavior that affect your ability to function in daily life.
Reactive Attachment Disorder
You may be struggling with Reactive Attachment Disorder if you have difficulty forming and maintaining meaningful relationships due to a history of neglect, abuse, or disruptions in caregiving during early childhood. Symptoms may include withdrawal, avoidance of social interaction, difficulty expressing emotions, and resistance to comfort or support from caregivers.
Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder
You may be struggling with Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder if you display indiscriminate sociability and a lack of reticence in interacting with unfamiliar adults, often as a result of early childhood experiences of neglect or inconsistent caregiving. Symptoms may include approaching and interacting with strangers without hesitation, lack of fear or wariness in unfamiliar settings, and seeking comfort and attention from unfamiliar adults.
This doesn’t have to be it.
Why do we experience depression and mood disorders?
Mood disorders often arise from a complex interplay of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors. While it might feel overwhelming, seeking support can help you understand and manage these factors, learn effective coping strategies, and work towards finding stability and well-being.
