Common PTSD Symptoms:

Trauma can manifest emotionally as well as physically. Headaches, fatigue, stomach aches, and other physical ailments are common.

Sudden mood swings, intense feelings of sadness, anger, or fear, and moments of numbness or detachment.

Being hypervigilant keeps the brain in a state of increased alertness, making it hard to relax and/or sleep.

Narrowing activities and social interactions to avoid situations perceived as risky, limiting the person’s quality of life.

Panic reactions result in intense, often sudden feelings of fear and physical reactions such as rapid heartbeat, sweating, and trembling.

About PTSD Treatment At Houston DBT Center

At the DBT Center we have multiple evidence based options for treating trauma including Prolonged Exposure therapy (PE), DBT-PE, cognitive processing and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). Your therapist will assist you in determining what option is best for you. Whatever approach you decide on with your therapist, you and your therapist will work together on determining a pace for your sessions and assuring you have the skills you need to cope with the emotions that thinking about the trauma might bring up. Your therapist will focus on helping you resolve the trauma so that you can think about the event without having a strong reaction. The emotional event that you experienced will no longer control your daily life.

About The PTSD Therapy Group

In addition, our DBT-PTSD group will help you learn skills to effectively manage PTSD and traumatic invalidation. It will include psychoeducation on PTSD, trauma, dissociation, and trauma-related emotions. You will learn skills to help engage in the present moment (mindfulness), survive difficult situations without making things worse (distress tolerance), and manage and understand emotions more effectively (emotion regulation). Additionally, you will learn anti-dissociation skills, tools for managing intrusions, and ways to be more compassionate and supportive of yourself. This group is a 24-week commitment and meets virtually on Fridays 11-12:30 pm CT.
