PTSD Treatment

Treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition triggered by witnessing or experiencing a terrifying event, such as combat, crime, assault, or disaster. More than 3 million Americans suffer from PTSD. The condition may last years, with triggers that bring back memories of the trauma and make it difficult for a person affected to function in day to day life.

PTSD Treatment Options

Traditional treatment for PTSD generally involves a combination of antidepressant or anti-anxiety medications and psychotherapy.
