Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder treatment comes in different shapes and forms – some individuals attend therapy working with a counselor they feel comfortable with for many years, others rely on medication to reduce the negative impact of the disorder on their mental well-being, and some people show considerable progress after just a few therapy sessions where a therapist implements a less traditional therapy modality such as cognitive restructuring. Either way, psychological assistance is going to improve the way you feel and interact with others. Untreated PTSD is a serious matter that damages the person with the diagnosis and the lives of their families, friends, and colleagues – no matter how long ago the traumatic event happened, therapy can be the answer you are looking for.
It is necessary to make an informed choice when picking a mental health facility where you will undergo Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder treatment – here is why you should select one of our clinics to accomplish your therapy goals:
Our therapists and psychiatrists have been providing patients with high-quality PTSD therapy for many years – you can rely on us and know that we will do our best to find a way to help you reduce your symptoms and regain control over your mental well-being. The rapport between the counselor and the patient often makes the difference in therapy so we are going to match you with an individual who is equipped with the knowledge to guide you to recovery.
Instead of offering the same techniques and practices to every individual with PTSD who needs our help, we will thoroughly examine their mental state, learn more about their medical history, and assess the impact of the traumatic event or series of events that led to the development of the disorder – we will find a unique way to help you and adjust your treatment whenever it is required.
Whether you and your family went through the same traumatic experience or you believe it may be a good idea to invite your loved ones to join you in therapy to accelerate your healing, we will accommodate your preferences and needs. The role of close relatives in helping an individual with PTSD cannot be overstated which is why we will advise you to involve them in the process of treatment.
There is a social stigma linked to any kind of psychotherapy – many individuals think that it will not yield meaningful results or that the counselor will judge them in case they finally decide to seek professional help. Do not let these misconceptions prevent you from getting the guidance you need – at our facility, you will feel safe and secure, and your problems and concerns will remain confidential forever.
The proximity of the mental health center to the patient’s home or workplace plays a major role in their commitment to therapy – if they can reconcile their busy schedule and treatment or their family members have an opportunity to visit them often during the residential treatment, it increases the likelihood of recovery. Below you can see a map of our Dallas clinics – pick a location that is the most convenient to you.
Do not hesitate to receive therapy for your Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder – individuals who failed to treat it within a few months or years of the condition developing may suffer from its consequences decades later. Get in touch with Dallas Mental Health today to take the first step towards PTSD recovery – your life does not have to be defined by this condition, and the healing is in your hands.
Talk to a therapist or psychiatrist if you cannot stop replaying the disturbing event you went through in your mind, you can no longer sleep peacefully due to nightmares, you have been feeling anxious or depressed, and your relationships with others are overshadowed by the numbness you cannot get rid of no matter how hard you try. Even if the diagnosis is not confirmed, you should use the opportunity to address a different disorder or condition.
Antidepressants that increase serotonin are typically prescribed to individuals with PTSD if talking therapy is not enough. Only a mental health professional can know what type of drug will work with your symptoms and adjust the dose at any point in the future so do not try to self-medicate with over-the-counter medicine you consider useful.
The way you respond to treatment is hard to predict – some people can return to normalcy after a few weeks of treatment while others require more time to lessen the symptoms of their disorder especially if they experienced both mental and physical manifestations of the condition. Still, there are multiple ways to manage your PTSD and lead a fulfilling life without its manifestations bothering you every day.
We try to collaborate with our patients when it comes to covering the cost of treatment which is why we accept most insurance plans. Nevertheless, you should contact us without delay so that we can tell you more about alternative payment options in case your insurance will not be sufficient.
If your PTSD symptoms are severe enough to prevent you from functioning normally or there are other mental health issues diagnosed during your assessment, our team will offer you to undergo a residential treatment program. Either way, it is up to you – people with mild and moderate symptoms show significant improvement with one or two therapy sessions per week.
