Dealing with PTSD: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that occurs when an individual experiences or witnesses a traumatic event such as violence, abuse, natural disaster, or military combat. This condition can cause anxiety, depression, nightmares, and flashbacks that can negatively affect the individual’s quality of life. However, there is hope for individuals struggling with PTSD, and Bearings Therapy is here to help you in Dealing with PTSD.

What is Bearings Therapy?

Bearings Therapy is a professional mental health clinic that provides evidence-based counseling services to individuals, couples, and families dealing with various mental health issues, including PTSD. Your experienced and compassionate therapist uses a variety of therapeutic approaches to help clients heal, grow, and thrive.

How Bearings Therapy Can Help with PTSD

At Bearings Therapy, we understand that PTSD is a complex condition that requires specialized treatment. Your experienced therapist uses evidenced-based approaches, such as Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Accelerate Resolution Therapy (ART), and Cognitive-Behavioral Conjoint Therapy (CBCT), to help clients manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

Cognitive Processing Therapy is an evidenced-based therapy for the treatment of PTSD.  It does not involve repeatedly reviewing the details of your traumas.  However, you will be asked to examine your experiences to understand how they have affected your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.

Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)

Accelerated Resolution Therapy is an evidenced-based therapy for the treatment of PTSD, ASD, depression, anxiety, OCD, eating disorders, addictions, chronic pain, and more. An eye-movement-based therapy, it combines the enormous power of eye movements to allow voluntary changes in the client’s mind with well established therapies like Gestalt, Psychodynamic Therapy and Guided Imagery.

Cognitive-Behavioral Conjoint Therapy (CBCT)

Cognitive-Behavioral Conjoint Therapy is an evidenced-based therapy for the treatment of PTSD in the context of couple therapy.  Like CPT, it doesn’t involve reliving your trauma repeatedly.  It also aims to improve communication, trust, acceptance, and physical and emotional intimacy.

FAQs

What should I expect during my first counseling session?

Your first counseling session will typically involve a comprehensive intake assessment, during which your therapist will ask you questions about your symptoms, medical history, and personal background. This information will help your therapist develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and goals. You can also expect to discuss confidentiality and other important aspects of the counseling process.

How long does PTSD treatment take?

The length of PTSD treatment varies depending on the individual and the severity of their symptoms. Some individuals may see significant improvement in just a few sessions, while others may require longer-term treatment. Your therapist will work with you to develop a treatment plan that is tailored to your unique needs and goals.
