Spravato
El nuevo tratamiento para la depresión
We use structured clinical assessments to distinguish between acute stress disorder, PTSD, and complex PTSD. Single-incident trauma, repeated childhood trauma, and ongoing traumatic stress each have distinct presentations that require different therapeutic approaches. Identifying which applies to you shapes everything that follows.
What Type of Trauma Response You're Experiencing
We identify the specific sensory cues, situations, relationships, and environments that activate your trauma response. Triggers are rarely obvious, and mapping them carefully is what makes treatment targeted rather than general. Understanding your trigger profile is the starting point for building effective, personalized care.
Which triggers make symptoms worse
Depression, anxiety, substance use, dissociation, and sleep disorders frequently co-occur with PTSD. Treating trauma in isolation when other conditions are present often limits how much progress a person can make. We assess the full picture so your treatment plan addresses everything that's contributing to your symptoms.
What other conditions might be involved
PTSD severity directly shapes treatment intensity and pacing. Some people benefit from trauma-focused therapy right away. Others need a stabilization phase first to build coping skills before processing traumatic memories. We assess how significantly your symptoms are affecting daily functioning and design a plan that meets you where you are.
How severe your symptoms are

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
TF-CBT is one of the most rigorously researched treatments for PTSD across all age groups. It helps you process traumatic memories in a structured, paced way while developing practical coping skills. Rather than avoiding trauma-related thoughts, you'll learn to engage with them in a controlled setting until they lose their power to destabilize you.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
EMDR uses guided bilateral stimulation to help your brain reprocess traumatic memories that are stored in a way that keeps triggering your stress response. Patients often find that memories that once felt overwhelming become easier to recall without the same emotional intensity. It's particularly effective for single-incident trauma and for people who struggle to talk through traumatic experiences verbally.
Medication Management
SSRIs and SNRIs are FDA-approved for PTSD and can significantly reduce hyperarousal, intrusive symptoms, and emotional reactivity. Medication creates stability that makes it easier to engage fully in therapy. We monitor your response closely and adjust as needed. Some people use medication short-term while building skills. Others benefit from longer-term support.
Somatic and Stabilization Techniques
Trauma lives in the body as much as the mind. We teach grounding techniques, breathwork, and body-awareness practices that help regulate your nervous system in the moments when symptoms spike. These skills are especially important in early treatment and continue to serve you long after formal therapy ends.

Trauma-Informed Care at Your Pace
PTSD treatment should not feel rushed or forced. We move carefully, build trust first, and help you develop coping skills before asking you to process painful memories.
Evidence-Based PTSD Treatment
We use proven treatment approaches for PTSD, including trauma-focused therapy, coping skills, stabilization strategies, and support for triggers, flashbacks, nightmares, avoidance, and emotional reactivity.
Medication Management When Needed
Medication may help reduce symptoms like hypervigilance, intrusive thoughts, sleep problems, nightmares, depression, or anxiety. We monitor your response carefully and adjust the plan based on what helps.
Support for the Full Trauma Response
PTSD can affect your mood, body, sleep, relationships, work, school, and sense of safety. We look at the full picture so treatment addresses more than just one symptom at a time.
