Trauma/Abuse

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a natural reaction that is experienced by one in three people who go through a traumatic event. When struggling with trauma and abuse interferes with your everyday life, it is time to get help.

Why Seek Counseling for PTSD and Trauma

You don’t have to face the symptoms of trauma alone. Counseling can help you recover from trauma and regain control over your life.
