How We Treat
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a psychological condition that can emerge in individuals who have undergone traumatic events or situations. Although commonly associated with adults and combat veterans, PTSD can also occur in young people.
It is essential to understand that while traumatic incidents typically induce stress and anxiety, the symptoms must be extremely severe to warrant a PTSD diagnosis.
