Treatment History

Treatment Background

PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder, is a mental disorder that results from exposure to a highly stressful event, either by experiencing or witnessing it. Those suffering with PTSD experience an overwhelming emotional response to certain triggers, brought on by the traumatic event. PTSD can present as nightmares, anxiety attacks, flashbacks, and may lead to the development of other disorders. PTSD treatment is a combination of therapy and antidepressant medication; however, success rates are low and relapse rates remain high.

-Changing The Way You Heal

Reconsolidation Therapy

Reconsolidation Therapy ™ allows you to keep your memories but lose your suffering. We experience trauma when our mind has been damaged from a overwhelmingly stressful event, either by experiencing it or witnessing it. Unfortunately, trauma is all too common, with approximately 3/4 of people experiencing a traumatic event at some point in their life. Trauma doesn’t discriminate and can result in a disorder called PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder. When memories are stored following a traumatic event, they can carry a high emotional charge, and when those with PTSD retrieve these memories, the
emotion attached to them can cause them to relive the traumatic event. Reconsolidation Therapy ™ seeks to reconsolidate the traumatic memories to elicit a lesser emotional response.
