Are you Experiencing Symptoms of PTSD?

Psychotherapy: At Counseling and Nature Therapy Center, we utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. We create a holistic, focused treatment plan based on your specific needs. Some of these holistic approaches include:

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): This therapy involves focusing on the traumatic memories while simultaneously engaging in bilateral stimulation, such as following the therapist's finger movements with the eyes or listening to alternating tones. EMDR aims to help individuals reprocess traumatic memories and reduce their emotional distress.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT): is a therapeutic approach designed to help individuals manage intense emotions, improve relationships, and develop healthy coping skills. It combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with mindfulness practices, emphasizing acceptance and change.

Mindfulness-Based Therapies: Practices like mindfulness meditation and mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) can help individuals with PTSD develop awareness of their thoughts and emotions, reduce reactivity to triggers, and cultivate self-compassion.

Nature Therapy: walk and talk therapy, mindfulness meditation in nature, and guided imagery with nature themes can all improve mental health. Nature therapy prescriptions can also increase well-being and general physical health.


Have you struggled with the following:

  • Fear or shame in a variety of situations?

  • Nightmares, intrusive memories, anxiety and relationship issues?

  • Engaging in risky behaviors or numbing intense feelings in unhealthy ways?

  • Do you feel alienated, struggle with social anxiety or experience fear that is disproportionate to the situation?

  • Low-Self Esteem or self- worth?

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a complex mental health condition that can develop in individuals who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event. If you have experienced all or some of these symptoms you might have PTSD.

Treatment for PTSD

Symptoms related to trauma are not the fault of the individual experiencing it; rather, they are a testament to the profound impact that traumatic experiences can have on the human psyche. It’s crucial to understand that these symptoms are not a choice or a sign of weakness on the part of the survivor. Instead, they are the mind's natural response to overwhelming and distressing events.

You are courageous for having survived and likely even thrived in spite of the trauma you have experienced. Empathy, support, and validation are essential in creating a safe space for you to navigate your trauma and reclaim agency over your life. Effective treatments such as EMDR therapy, CPT, medication and a variety of self-care strategies that offer hope for recovery and healing.
