Individual Therapy for Trauma & PTSD
IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR INDIVIDUAL THERAPY FOR PTSD OR OTHER TRAUMA RELATED DIAGNOSES, YOU’RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE
At Reflection Psychology, we provide trauma therapy online to anyone living in
Florida or any of the PSYPACT states.
You don’t need to have experienced something big like a natural disaster or a war to have trauma.
Trauma does include intense events such as these, but it is not limited to the magnitude of the event or to a specific population (i.e., military). You may have gone through something challenging you think you just need to “get over,” like memories from a tumultuous childhood, a relationship ending, sexual assault, or a life-threatening medical diagnosis.
The truth is, nobody is exempt from experiencing trauma, and it can come in many forms.
It can be anything that significantly impacts the way you move in the world, how you think, act, and feel. Trauma impacts your belief system about yourself and others. It acts as a dark lens through which you see the world (and the people in it).
Treat your trauma and PTSD Symptoms with Therapy
If you feel confused, out of control, or sometimes — intensely sad — know that you are not alone.
After experiencing trauma, navigating the demands of daily life can be incredibly challenging. Feeling safe might require a lot of effort. Trusting others — or even yourself — can cause worry, stress, and might even feel impossible to do. Your anxiety might be at an all time high. Even simple tasks might feel overwhelming, causing your work to pile up and avoidance to kick in.
Maybe you feel angry with yourself for “letting” something bad happen (even though logically, you know it was out of your control). You may blame somebody else for the situation and experience constant resentment.
Negative thoughts along with feelings of shame, anxiety, and guilt might be weighing you down physically and emotionally. It’s common for physical symptoms like heart palpitations, sweating, and upset stomach to manifest after a traumatic event (or series of traumatic events). You might feel too tired to function or be getting sick more often than usual.
Brain fog, difficulty concentrating, depression and feelings of low self-worth may be creeping into your daily life. You might be so overwhelmed that you just try to numb out... because facing what happened is too painful.
It can be difficult to cope with all of these
feelings on your own.
Luckily, with the help of a highly trained therapist you don’t have to.

Individual Trauma Therapy and PTSD Treatment
At Reflection Psychology, we treat a wide range of symptoms and comorbid disorders associated with PTSD, including anxiety and depression.
Please know that there is nothing wrong with you, and you don’t have to carry this pain alone. Trauma can make us think really awful things about ourselves. And it can make us feel really big emotions. It’s exhausting! If it feels impossible to go through life just doing “normal” things, like doing the dishes or getting good sleep, trauma therapy and PTSD treatment can help.
WITH THE RIGHT SUPPORT YOU CAN HEAL.
