Finding trauma-informed care online
Last updated: January 2025 | Medically reviewed
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. Symptoms include flashbacks, nightmares, severe anxiety, and uncontrollable thoughts about the event.
Effective treatments for PTSD include Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), EMDR, and Prolonged Exposure therapy. Many online platforms now offer these evidence-based approaches.
When seeking online therapy for trauma, look for therapists specifically trained in trauma-focused approaches. Both BetterHelp and Talkspace allow you to filter for trauma specialists.
