At NY Mental Health Center, we understand that trauma doesn’t follow a timeline—and healing shouldn’t have to either. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a serious mental health condition that can emerge after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event, and it often doesn’t appear right away. For some, the emotional aftermath of trauma becomes deeply embedded, resurfacing through distressing symptoms that can significantly disrupt daily life.
Our team of expert psychologists and psychiatrists—each with an average of 18 years of clinical experience—is here to guide you through a path toward recovery with care, compassion, and clinical precision.
Understanding PTSD
PTSD can stem from a wide range of traumatic experiences including combat exposure, physical assault, sexual abuse, childhood neglect, serious illness, natural disasters, and more. What sets PTSD apart from typical reactions to trauma is the persistence and intensity of symptoms over time. Flashbacks, nightmares, emotional numbness, and severe anxiety are all common indicators of PTSD—and they are not signs of weakness. They’re signs you deserve support.
Certain factors can make someone more vulnerable to developing PTSD, such as a history of trauma, mental health conditions in the family, or early life adversity. Women are statistically more likely to experience PTSD due to higher exposure to domestic and sexual abuse.
