PTSD is characterized by intense, disturbing thoughts, feelings and dreams related to their traumatic experience that lasts long after the event has ended. One may relive the event through flashbacks or nightmares and may feel sadness, fear or anger as well as a sense of detachment or dissociation. Feeling estranged or threatened by other people is common.
At NYC Psychotherapy Cooperative, we provide a calm, affirming environment where you can share your story without judgment. Our therapists are skilled in trauma-informed care, working gently to help you process painful memories, reduce intrusive symptoms, and restore a sense of safety. We use evidence-based methods—such as psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, and grounding techniques—tailored to your needs. The goal is not to erase the past, but to help you move forward with greater resilience, balance, and trust in yourself.
