Registered Social Worker, B.A., Psych, M.S.W., R.S.W.
Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder that affects our mental health. It is characterized by PTSD symptoms that begin after a specific traumatic event or a build-up of trauma over time. This traumatic event or general trauma is often replayed repeatedly in the person's mind, making it appear as if they are continually experiencing this event. This results in the fears and stress associated with the trauma being continually reactivated in the body and mind.
The key to a diagnosis of PTSD is that this trauma, whether experiencing it or witnessing it, leads to debilitating anxiety symptoms that impact one’s ability to function on a day-to-day basis.

Ahmadreza Zamani
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
Trauma is an event or experience that is deeply distressing or upsetting, and can have long-lasting effects on an individual's mental and emotional well-being. PTSD, or Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, is a mental health condition that can develop after exposure to a traumatic event, such as a natural disaster, combat, sexual assault, or a car accident.
PTSD can cause a range of symptoms, including intrusive thoughts and memories of the traumatic event, avoidance of reminders of the trauma, and negative changes in mood and cognition. These symptoms can interfere with daily life and relationships, and may lead to other mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.
Effective treatments for PTSD include psychotherapy, specifically Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and medication. Trauma-focused therapy can help individuals process their traumatic experiences, develop coping skills, and reduce symptoms of PTSD. If you or a loved one is struggling with the effects of trauma or PTSD, it is important to seek help from a licensed mental health professional to receive a proper diagnosis and develop a comprehensive treatment plan.
