PTSD in Teens
PTSD in teens often arises after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. These events could range from:
- Accidents and natural disasters
- Abuse
- Bullying
- Or other intense experiences
For some teens, the emotional impact of these events lingers long after the danger has passed, leading to intrusive memories, heightened anxiety, or emotional numbness.
Without professional help, PTSD symptoms can interfere with school, friendships, and family life. Teens may struggle with nightmares, difficulty concentrating, irritability, or withdrawing from loved ones. Early intervention is critical, and finding the right PTSD treatment center can make all the difference.
Our PTSD Treatment
At OHCAW, we provide a safe and empathetic environment where teens can explore their experiences and learn techniques to overcome PTSD. Our PTSD treatment combines evidence-based therapies with a holistic approach, ensuring each teen’s individual needs are met.
Our clinicians are highly experienced in PTSD therapy, utilizing methods such as:
- Trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT)
- Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR
- Mindfulness-based techniques
When appropriate, we also offer PTSD medication as part of a comprehensive care plan.
We believe in involving families in the healing process, providing education and support to help parents better understand PTSD in teens. With our collaborative approach, teens can develop healthier coping mechanisms, process their trauma in a safe space, and reclaim control over their lives.
