Ptsd Recovery

Get real about handling PTSD without abusing drugs, alcohol, or prescription meds! Do you ever feel stuck, as if you can’t move past the traumatic experience that took a piece of your life away? You’ve become so good at the “cover-up” that you’ve managed to somehow forget who you really are or what makes you tick. You need a path that leads you from feeling lost and discouraged back to a place where you feel alive again. You already know you need to change your stream of thought from, “What’s wrong with life?” to, “What’s great?”.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is a type of cognitive behavioral therapy. Its main goals are to teach people how to live in the moment, cope healthily with stress, regulate emotions, and improve relationships with others. It was originally intended for people with borderline personality disorder (BPD) but has since been adapted for other conditions where the patient exhibits self-destructive behavior, such as eating disorders and substance abuse. It is also sometimes used to treat post-traumatic stress disorder.
