Complex PTSD Santa Ynez Valley

Complex PTSD Help

Are you looking for help with Complex PTSD in the Santa Ynez Valley?  The Trauma Healing Center can help you find peace with the traumatic events of your past.  

Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) occurs in individuals who have been subjected to ongoing traumatizing experiences.  Because complex PTSD (CPTSD) manifests over many years, the impact can have immeasurable consequences.  For individuals who suffered heightened stressors in their childhood, their brain may have changed chemistry and their responses to stress may be very different from those who did not suffer ongoing trauma.  

If you are suffering from Complex PTSD please reach out to us.  The Trauma Healing Center provides a safe place to process past traumatic experiences, which may result in diminished symptoms.  Our holistic, somatic and experiential work will help reduce nightmares, shallow breathing, rapid heart rate, nausea and any hypervigilance you may be experiencing.  

Santa Ynez Valley

The Trauma Healing Center is located in the heart of beautiful Santa Ynez Valley.  When the Trauma Healing Center opened in 2019 we recognized that being centrally located to all of the residents of Santa Barbara County was an important consideration.  Opening The Trauma Healing Center in downtown Solvang made even more sense.  Not only were we central to Santa Barbara County, but it also provided convenient access for the residents of the Santa Ynez Valley.  

Common Complex PTSD Treatment Steps:

• Psychotherapy -  Individual and/or group psychotherapy components are a part of a client’s customized healing program.  Art Therapy is yet another resource in their healing program and allows the client to express themselves in a way they might not yet have experienced.
• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) - When appropriate our certified EMDR therapists utilize EMDR in 90 minute sessions two to three times a week.
• Medication - For clients who need medication to help manage their Complex PTSD, we encourage them to utilize a psychiatrist.  If a client is already working with a psychiatrist we communicate directly with the psychiatrist during the healing process.  

Don’t let CPTSD keep you from living your best life.  Contact us today for more information.  It is Time to Heal.
