Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome
One of our areas of expertise at DFPsych is Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (also known as Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome, or PTSD).PTSD is an anxiety disorder that manifests itself as an ongoing emotional reaction to severe physical or psychological trauma.In times of war, PTSD was referred to as ‘shell shock’ although today it still affects those who have witnessed or experienced horrific events such as a near-death experience, or psychological harm.At DFPscyh, we address Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT. This allows us to isolate the stressors of the event in the here and now, and identify the psychological triggers without the use of drugs or psychoanalysis.We have been successful in treating many cases of Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome.
