At Safe Mind Counseling, we understand that trauma changes lives—and not always in ways we can see. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can show up weeks, months, or even years after a traumatic event. Whether you’ve survived abuse, an accident, military service, or witnessed something distressing, PTSD can make everyday life feel overwhelming. But healing is possible—and you don’t have to do it alone.

​

PTSD affects both the mind and body. It may look like flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, avoidance, or feeling constantly “on edge.” You might feel detached from others, struggle to trust, or feel shame for things that were never your fault. These responses are not signs of weakness—they’re signs of a nervous system that’s trying to protect you after something unbearable.

​

At Safe Mind Counseling, we offer trauma-informed, culturally sensitive care that meets you where you are. Our therapists are trained in evidence-based treatments for PTSD, including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), cognitive processing therapy (CPT), and somatic approaches that help regulate the body’s response to stress. We work at a pace that feels safe for you. There's no pressure to "revisit" everything if you’re not ready.

​

We know that PTSD can also impact relationships, work, and your sense of identity. That’s why we don’t just focus on symptom relief—we focus on rebuilding safety, self-trust, and connection. We believe in your strength and resilience, even if it doesn’t feel accessible right now.

Healing from trauma is not linear, and there is no one-size-fits-all path. But with the right support, it becomes possible to breathe a little easier, sleep a little deeper, and feel more like yourself again.

​

If you’re ready to take that first step—or even just think about taking that first step—Safe Mind Counseling is here to walk alongside you. You deserve healing. You deserve peace. And we’re here to help you find it.
