What is PTSD?
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. It may cause flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, sleep difficulties, avoidance, or feeling constantly on alert. Symptoms can appear soon after the event or much later and may begin to affect work, relationships, and everyday life.
Why CBT Is an Effective Treatment for PTSD
Trauma-focused CBT is a recommended treatment for PTSD and can help you understand how traumatic experiences continue to influence your thoughts, emotions, and behaviour. Therapy focuses on reducing the distress linked to traumatic memories while helping you develop healthier ways to respond to triggers and difficult situations.
- Recognise triggers linked to traumatic experiences
- Understand how thoughts can intensify fear and distress
- Challenge beliefs that keep you feeling unsafe or powerless
- Reduce avoidance that can limit everyday life
- Develop healthier ways to respond to difficult memories and emotions
How the Therapy Works
Understanding Your Trauma Responses
We begin by exploring how PTSD affects you, including triggers, flashbacks, avoidance, anxiety, and feeling constantly on alert.
Processing Difficult Memories
Therapy helps you work through traumatic memories in a structured and supported way, so they can feel less overwhelming over time.
Changing Trauma-Related Beliefs
We look at thoughts around danger, guilt, blame, or loss of control and work towards more balanced and helpful ways of thinking.
Rebuilding Safety and Confidence
You gradually develop ways to manage triggers, reduce avoidance, and feel more secure and confident in everyday life.
