Conditions Treated
Trauma
Trauma is an emotional response to a terrible event like an accident, combat, crime, rape, or even a natural disaster. Immediately after the event, shock and denial are typical. Longer term reactions include unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, strained relationships and even physical symptoms like headaches or nausea. While these feelings are normal, some people have difficulty moving on in life.
Pelvic Pain
Pelvic pain is pain in the lowest part of your pelvis and abdomen, sometimes even the back. Pelvic pain can occur suddenly, sharply and briefly (acute), or over the long term (chronic). Chronic pelvic pain refers to any constant or intermittent pelvic pain that has been present for six months or more. Sometimes, you might notice pelvic pain only at certain moments, such as during sexual activity.
PTSD
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that's triggered by a terrifying or traumatic event — either experiencing it or witnessing it. Symptoms may include flashbacks, nightmares and severe anxiety, as well as uncontrollable thoughts about the traumatic event. If the symptoms get worse, last for months or even years, and interfere with your day-to-day functioning, you may have PTSD.
Stress
Stress is an automatic physical, mental and emotional response to a challenging event. It's a normal part of everyone's life. When used positively, stress can lead to growth, action and change. But negative, long-term stress can lessen your quality of life.
Depression
Depression is a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest. It affects how you feel, think and behave and can lead to a variety of emotional and physical problems. You may have trouble doing normal day-to-day activities, and sometimes you may feel as if life isn't worth living. But don't get discouraged, depression is not a weakness. Most people with depression feel better with psychotherapy, medication or both.
Anxiety
Anxiety is an emotion characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts and physical changes like increased blood pressure. People with anxiety disorders usually have recurring intrusive thoughts or concerns. They may avoid certain situations out of worry. They may also have physical symptoms such as sweating, trembling, dizziness or a rapid heartbeat.
Low Confidence
Confidence is an individual's expectations of performance, or simply just believing in oneself. Confidence is key to success. Sometimes, negative experiences occur that can hinder or even damage self-confidence. Understanding the occurrence, coupled with some life exposure to hinder the doubt, can help to overcome loss of confidence. Believing, realizing, and or knowing one can overcome will build confidence or recover it.
Postpartum Depression
Some women experience Postpartum Depression. Unlike the baby blues, PPD doesn’t go away on its own. It can appear days or even months after delivering a baby; it can last for many weeks or months if left untreated. PPD can make it hard to get through the day, and it can affect your ability to take care of your baby, or yourself. PPD can affect any woman, regardless of pregnancy, ethnicity, social background, etc.
Life Transitions
Life events happen, and changes occur which many times are out of our control. Examples of life events or transitions are leaving home, children leaving the nest, new motherhood, single again, spouses leaving for deployment, career change, self-evaluation of personal purpose and goals, etc. Thoughtful evaluation, insight and processing of life transitions can help increase life satisfaction and proper align with personal values.
