PTSD Counseling in Phoenix, AZ

POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER (PTSD) COUNSELING

PTSD counseling helps individuals to overcome the physical and emotional effects of traumatic experiences, regardless of the nature of trauma or how long ago the incident occurred. Our psychologists and counselors have extensive experience treating individuals suffering from life-altering symptoms of PTSD using methods including EMDR therapy

While Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD was first discovered among military men that had endured the brutality of war, today we know that many individuals can experience lingering symptoms associated with trauma and painful circumstances. Individuals with PTSD often describe recurrent feelings of anxiety, fear, and hopelessness that they cannot seem to fix. 

While the trauma of our past may seem like they will haunt us forever, there is hope. At Biltmore Psychology and Counseling, our PTSD therapists help individuals overcome the symptoms and difficulties of PTSD and guide them through the processes of grief and healing.
