POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER (PTSD)

Avaliação clínica e acompanhamento
especializado

O stress pós-traumático pode surgir após experiências marcantes que ultrapassam a capacidade de adaptação da pessoa. Não acontece apenas em contextos de guerra ou catástrofes. Pode resultar de acidentes, perdas, violência, abuso, situações médicas ou burnout extremo.

 Na The Clinic of Change, acompanhamos pessoas que sentem que o passado continua a interferir com o presente.

Quando o trauma
continua ativo

After a traumatic experience, it is common to have an intense emotional reaction. The problem arises when the symptoms persist and begin to affect daily life, even long after the event.

PTSD may be present when:

  • The body reacts as if the danger were still present
  • Intrusive memories or avoidance arise
  • Are there changes in sleep, mood, or concentration?

In these cases, it is important to seek specialized care.

O que é o Stress
Pós-Traumático (PTSD)

PTSD is a mental health condition in which the nervous system remains on high alert even after the actual threat has ended. Trauma is not just a memory—it involves automatic responses from the body and brain that remain active in the present.

That's why it can't be solved by willpower alone. It requires a clinical approach tailored to the functioning of the nervous system.

Most Common Signs of Post-Traumatic Stress

  • Do you relive past events through memories, images, or nightmares?
  • Do you constantly feel on edge or have trouble feeling safe?
  • Do you avoid people, places, or situations that remind you of what happened?

Symptoms may appear immediately after the trauma or develop months or years later.

Clinical Assessment of PTSD

The follow-up begins with an in-depth clinical evaluation, which helps us understand the impact of the trauma, the severity of symptoms, and any possible comorbidities, ensuring a safe and tailored treatment plan.

Schedule a clinical evaluation


n Therapeutic Approach

Based on the assessment, follow-up may include:

  • Psychotherapy specializing in trauma
  • Adapted Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy
  • Psychiatric follow-up, when indicated

The goal is to promote emotional regulation, reduce the constant activation of the nervous system, and facilitate the gradual integration of the traumatic experience.
