Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Treatment at Right Help Psychiatry

nderstanding and Overcoming Trauma

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a type of anxiety disorder that can develop after a person has experienced a traumatic event. Symptoms of PTSD include re-experiencing aspects of the trauma, avoiding reminders of the trauma, negative changes in thoughts and mood, and heightened physical and emotional reactions. At Right Help Psychiatry, we offer comprehensive treatment for PTSD, including pharmacological and psychological interventions.

What is PTSD?

PTSD is a disorder that develops in some people who have experienced a shocking, scary, or dangerous event. It is natural to feel afraid during and after a traumatic situation. Fear is a part of the body’s “fight-or-flight” response, which helps us avoid or respond to potential danger. People may experience a range of reactions after trauma, and most people recover from initial symptoms over time. Those who continue to experience problems may be diagnosed with PTSD.

Treatment for PTSD

Treatment for PTSD often includes a combination of medication and therapy. Antidepressants are commonly used to help manage symptoms, along with trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is another effective treatment option. Our team at Right Help Psychiatry is experienced in treating PTSD and will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that meets your needs.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Treatment at Right Help Psychiatry

Understanding and Managing Obsessions and Compulsions

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental disorder characterized by the presence of obsessions and/or compulsions. Obsessions are intrusive, unwanted thoughts, images, or urges that cause significant distress. Compulsions are repetitive behaviors or mental acts that an individual feels driven to perform in response to an obsession or according to rules that must be applied rigidly. At Right Help Psychiatry, we offer comprehensive treatment for OCD, including medication management and therapy.

What is OCD?

OCD is a mental disorder in which a person feels the need to perform certain routines repeatedly (compulsions) or has certain thoughts repeatedly (obsessions). The person is unable to control either the thoughts or activities for more than a short period of time. In order to cope with the obsessions, people with OCD engage in repeated behaviors or thoughts, known as compulsions, to make themselves feel safer.

Treatment for OCD

Treatment for OCD typically involves a combination of medication and therapy. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are often prescribed to help manage symptoms. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is also highly effective in treating OCD. Exposure and response prevention (ERP) is a specific type of CBT that is particularly effective for OCD. Our team at Right Help Psychiatry will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific symptoms and needs.

Bipolar disorder, formerly called manic depression, is a mental health condition that causes extreme mood swings that include emotional highs (mania or hypomania) and lows (depression). When you become depressed, you may feel sad or hopeless and lose interest or pleasure in most activities. In mania, a patient is physically and mentally overactive, either elated or irritable, and tends to talk excessively and move quickly from one topic to the next.

Symptoms and Diagnosis

Mood episodes in bipolar disorder can last for days, weeks, or months, making daily life challenging. Manic symptoms include decreased sleep, excessive risk-taking, racing thoughts, and elevated mood. Depressive symptoms include feelings of hopelessness, isolation, changes in appetite, and suicidal thoughts. A diagnosis for bipolar disorder can only be confirmed by mental health professionals through a detailed consultation of the patient’s current and past symptoms.
