Trauma & Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Healing from Trauma and PTSD
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder can develop after experiences such as car accidents, assault, natural disasters, or other life-changing events. Even painful situations like divorce, job loss, or the illness of a loved one can leave someone feeling anxious, unsettled, and unable to move forward. With the right kind of therapy, many people notice real changes. Sleep improves, daily life feels easier, and the constant sense of danger begins to fade. Our therapists are trained in approaches shown to help people process what happened and move toward feeling more at peace. If you are ready to take the first step, we can match you with someone who understands and can help.
Suicide & Suicidal Thinking
Suicide and Suicidal Thoughts
Suicidal thinking can be difficult to talk about, and many people are afraid to bring it up for fear of being hospitalized against their will. While hospitalization is sometimes the right choice, it is rarely a long-term solution. For those who have lived with chronic suicidal thoughts, another short stay in the hospital may not address the real issues. For someone experiencing new thoughts about ending their life, the fear of being exposed or taken away can prevent them from speaking honestly.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is one approach that has been shown to help people with suicidal urges in an outpatient setting. DBT focuses on identifying the actual problems driving suicidal thoughts and working toward practical, meaningful solutions. This approach allows for open, respectful conversations about death without avoidance or judgment. The goal is to help create a life that feels more worthwhile than the idea of ending it, one that offers real reasons to stay.
