Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is complex and takes specialized training to support clients in achieving resolution of distress and dysregulation. Because of this specialization, trauma informed services may be difficult to find. At Trauma and Beyond Center, we provide treatment for PTSD in Los Angeles and surrounding communities. Finding the right treatment is an essential step toward recovery and healthier functioning.
Understanding PTSD
As described by the name, PTSD occurs in the aftermath of trauma. Traumatic events can include warfare, natural disasters, violence, physical, emotional, and sexual abuse or assault, or any event that would overwhelm the nervous system and cause fear for one’s safety or the safety of others. Sufferers may experience a range of symptoms, from disturbing dreams and flashbacks; intrusive images and thoughts; distress at minor events which occur throughout the day; anxiety; lack of sleep; hypervigilance; avoidance including addiction, inability to feel, and overwhelming feelings of guilt, anger, sadness and shame. You may experience many or only a few of these symptoms when you suffer from PTSD.
Trauma Informed Therapy
At Trauma and Beyond ® , we practice trauma informed therapy. This type of treatment is very important for the healing process, and is very different from classical forms of psychotherapy in important ways. Unlike the latter, which focuses on left brain healing, right brain psychotherapy utilizes a relational approach and incorporates awareness of bodily sensations, emotional responses, relational resonance, and thought restructuring to generate deeper healing. Trauma informed therapies include EMDR, TRM. SE, NARM, SP.
