Are Your Symptoms of PTSD Overwhelming?
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP) is a promising option for many veterans who are struggling to find symptom relief. This therapeutic tool is used to complement therapy sessions in order for the client to experience more frequent breakthroughs and sustained improvement in symptoms.
How Does Therapy Work?
CBT is a beneficial tool for veterans with PTSD, depression, anger, and other mental health issues. It enables them to recognize negative thoughts and unhealthy behavioral patterns. With awareness and completion of therapy homework, this mindset can transform into a positive and productive one.
Another method that has helped veterans make positive changes is hypnotherapy. Hypnotherapy has been found to help many veterans tap into their inner strength. This allows them to achieve goals, improve symptoms of pain, overcome unhealthy habits, and improve overall well-being.
Counseling can provide veterans with a safe place to express themselves without judgment. As a professional counselor, I can teach skills to help you identify and process triggers, develop healthy coping strategies, and improve your communication skills. With these tools, veterans can navigate their lives with resilience, peace, and greater self-understanding.
