Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a traumatic, scary or dangerous event. PTSD can be caused by either witnessing or experiencing the trauma. Events that sometimes trigger PTSD include everything from sexual assault, war, and violence, to car accidents or other incidents that could cause loss of life. It is not at all uncommon for people who go through something traumatic to have temporary difficulty coping and acute symptoms, but with time, they usually get better. However, if the symptoms last longer than a month, get worse rather than better and affect your ability to function, you may be suffering from PTSD. Symptoms of PTSD may include severe anxiety, anger, nightmares, trouble sleeping, flashbacks to the event, frightening thoughts, avoidance of situations or places, feeling on edge and/or being easily startled. If you think you may be experiencing PTSD, reach out to one of TherapyDen’s specialists today to get help.

My clients are broad in range. Some of my clients arrive at my practice ready to work on sexual dysfunction and how to become empowered in their bodies. Some of my clients are CNM and are looking for a therapist to help them work through relational issues. Some of my clients are looking for a kink aware space to just be. Also, close to my heart, are those clients struggling with infertility or miscarriage. SWT is a place of comfort, acknowledgment and acceptance.
