What Is PTSD?
10. Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy involves an expert speaking with the patient about their symptoms and what is causing them. The treatment is aimed largely at helping the patient to understand the cause of their symptoms better, and to help them feel better about their self.
Psychotherapy is also largely about teaching the patient new skill that will help them to recognize their symptoms and to learn how to manage them better. It can also help the patient to recognize triggers of other problems like substance abuse, and help to prevent them from using substances. Psychotherapy treatment can be very effective in helping to improve the patient’s life overall.
