How Therapy Can Help
Effective treatments for PTSD support you in processing the trauma and restoring a sense of agency and safety. Commonly used approaches include:
-
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT): Helps shift harmful beliefs and “stuck points” related to the trauma.
-
EMDR: Uses bilateral stimulation (often eye movements) to help the brain process unresolved memories and reduce distress.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Focuses on the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, helping to reduce anxiety and regain emotional balance.
