Causes and Risk Factors
PTSD can develop after a person is exposed to a traumatic event, such as combat, a natural disaster, a car accident, or sexual assault. Risk factors for developing PTSD include experiencing intense or long-lasting trauma, having a job that increases the risk of being exposed to traumatic events (e.g., military personnel, first responders), having other mental health problems, having problems with substance misuse, and lacking a good support system.

At Refresh Recovery & Wellness in Norwell, MA, we offer a range of evidence-based treatments for PTSD, tailored to the unique needs of each individual. Our multidisciplinary team of professionals is dedicated to helping clients manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT is particularly effective in treating PTSD. It helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors that contribute to PTSD symptoms. Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) are specific types of CBT used for PTSD.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): EMDR is a specialized therapy designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories. It involves the use of bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements, to help process and integrate traumatic memories.
Medication Management: Medications can be an effective component of PTSD treatment. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) are commonly prescribed to help reduce the symptoms of PTSD.
Mindfulness and Relaxation Techniques: Mindfulness practices, such as meditation and yoga, can help individuals manage PTSD by promoting relaxation and present-moment awareness. Deep breathing exercises and progressive muscle relaxation are also effective techniques.
Supportive Care: Supportive care involves providing a safe and nurturing environment for individuals to explore their feelings and experiences. This may include individual therapy, group therapy, and family therapy to help build a support system.
Lifestyle and Wellness Strategies: Healthy lifestyle habits can significantly impact PTSD symptoms. Regular physical activity, a balanced diet, sufficient sleep, and mindfulness practices can help improve overall well-being.
