As we go through the journey of life, we go through a myriad of experiences. While most leave us with wonderful, lasting memories, there are moments in life that can sadly leave a big scar inside of us, which can, at times, lead to post-traumatic stress disorder, thus the need for PTSD therapy.

Such is life that, from time to time, unfortunate events occur; it could be being in a car accident, witnessing someone committing a crime, getting hurt by someone you love, or serving during the war—all these can bring trauma to a person. We at K&C Behavioral Health LLC are here to help those who are affected by offering quality mental health care in Maryland.

As a provider of behavioral health care in Laurel, Maryland, we work hard to be your guiding light in times when life seems dark. We are here to be your friend when you or a loved one feels consumed by your own thoughts, and we will lead the way for you to be able to push through it in the healthiest way possible. For that to happen, it is important to know the signs and/or symptoms first; below are a few examples:

• Getting startled very easily
• Experiencing angry outbursts
• Having nightmares
• Struggling with flashbacks
• Seeing themselves negatively

If you notice that a family member is experiencing such symptoms or other concerning behaviors that are unusual, it is best to seek professional help. There are times that a patient may refuse to get treatment because they are in denial, but you must remember to practice patience with them. Give them time, and when they are ready, you can take small and convenient steps, such as getting in touch with us through telepsychiatry in Maryland.
