Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a highly stressful or traumatic event, such as an accident, abuse, war, or a distressing medical experience.

If you have experienced a traumatic event in your life and are faced with flashbacks of this trauma, memory loss, feeling much more anxious and vigilant compared to before or avoiding things that remind you of the trauma, then you might be suffering from PTSD. Note that these symptoms often appear within a few weeks but it can also take years.

Our online CBT program includes tools and exercises designed to help people who experience symptoms related to post-traumatic stress. With the guidance of a therapist, you can gradually explore difficult thoughts, memories, and situations connected to past experiences in a structured and supportive way.

CBT approaches for trauma-related symptoms often focus on understanding how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact. Many people find that learning new ways to respond to reminders of past events can help reduce distress and improve their sense of control.

Work is done gradually and at a pace that feels manageable for you. Over time, many people experience fewer anxiety reactions and feel better able to move forward in their daily lives.

"Navigating a comprehensive workbook like this requires a massive amount of mental energy, vulnerability, and honest self-reflection. It has really given me a lot to think about and has given me a different perspective on day to day life."

"I’ve been using this online therapy platform for about a month and it’s been a really positive experience. My therapist is attentive, professional, and gives me practical tools I can use in real life. The app makes it easy to schedule sessions and send messages between appointments. Overall, I feel more supported and clear‑headed than I did when I started, and I plan to keep using it."

"So far a good experience, I really appreciate how easy it is to switch therapists and the response times CAN be slow but aren't terrible. Not sure how useful the worksheets are on their own, but they're good conversation starters for your therapist!"
