Therapy for PTSD

Post-traumatic stress disorder is treatable, and several therapies have strong research support. These include prolonged exposure (PE), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), trauma-focused CBT, and EMDR. Each helps you process traumatic memories and reduce the symptoms — intrusive memories, nightmares, avoidance, and feeling constantly on edge — that can follow a frightening or life-threatening experience.

PTSD can develop after combat, an accident, assault, a medical event, or any experience that overwhelmed your ability to cope. Symptoms sometimes appear months or years later. If that sounds familiar, the providers below work with PTSD and can help you find an evidence-based approach at a pace that feels manageable.
