Therapy Issues

Military/Combat Trauma

Are you struggling with the effects of military and combat trauma?

Right now, you might be experiencing:

 

  • Nightmares and Flashbacks: Frequent nightmares, flashbacks, and sleep disturbances that keep you on edge.
  • Personality and Behavior Changes: Noticeable changes in your personality, eating habits, sleep patterns, and self-care routines.
  • Anger and Irritability: Intense anger, irritation, and rage, especially when off-duty and around the people you care about.
  • Social Withdrawal: Pulling away from others, isolating yourself from friends and loved ones.
  • Excessive Worry: Constant, excessive worry and fear that dominate your thoughts.

You’ve started to recognize how unresolved military and combat trauma is impacting your life:

  • Work Distraction: You’re distracted and not performing well at work, which is becoming more apparent.
  • Lack of Presence at Home: You can’t rest or be present at home—your spouse, friends, and loved ones are increasingly concerned.
  • Parenting Challenges: You want to be a good, loving parent, but feel you have no capacity left to do so.
  • Substance Use: You’re noticing an increase in your alcohol consumption or other substances, and it’s becoming a problem that’s hard to stop.

You’re wondering…

  • Shouldn’t I be able to handle this on my own?
  • What am I going through—military/combat trauma, combat stress, PTSD?
  • How can I talk to a civilian about what I’m experiencing? How could they possibly understand?
  • Will I have to talk about all the details and re-live it again?

You’re longing for…

  • Return to Yourself: A chance to feel like your old self again, someone who had the capacity to handle hard things.
  • Peaceful Sleep: The ability to sleep through the night without waking your partner up with your nightmares.
  • Mental Relief: A day—or even an hour—where intrusive thoughts don’t distract you.
  • Presence and Control: The ability to be present for your family and life again, not ruled by what you’ve witnessed and how it has negatively impacted you.
  • Healthy Habits: Getting back to healthier habits and regaining a sense of control and agency to stop the harmful ones.

What you’re longing for is possible.
