How We Treat PTSD at Our Ohio Residential Facility

PTSD occurs after a person experiences a terrifying or traumatic event. Symptoms can surface immediately or it can take days, weeks, months, or even years after the traumatizing event before symptoms appear. PTSD can cause chronic feelings of distress, fear, apprehension, and anxiety along with nightmares or flashbacks.

Symptoms of PTSD can sometimes lay dormant until a person experiences a trigger. A trigger is a sight, sound, smell, or thought that reminds you of the traumatic event, which results in PTSD symptoms.

Some triggers are obvious, while others may be less clear. An obvious trigger may be a news story about an assault, while a less obvious trigger might be the weather if the weather is similar to the day you experienced trauma.

PTSD has physical, psychological, and behavioral aspects, which means it is best treated with a variety of interventions. There usually isn’t a routine, uniform, or single-solution for PTSD. 

At The Trails, we combine interventions to provide a fully integrated approach to treatment to address all factors contributing to PTSD symptoms. Your team of doctors and clinicians will develop a treatment plan unique to your situation, consisting of medications, psychotherapy, and holistic therapies.

Medications

There are several types of medications used to treat PTSD, usually SSRIs. At our facility, you will work with a physician to learn if medication could help limit the anxiety associated with trauma. Your physician will help you find a medication that works best for you.

Psychotherapy 

At our Ohio trauma rehab, we utilize a variety of therapeutic modalities. Therapy has proven to help reduce symptoms of PTSD, such as anxiety, distress, flashbacks, and nightmares. Therapies we utilize include:

  • Cognitive behavioral therapy
  • Dialectical behavioral therapy
  • Prolonged exposure therapy
  • Stress inoculation training
  • Group therapy
  • Somatic Therapy Interventions

Holistic Therapy

Holistic therapies have also been shown to help reduce anxiety. Some of holistic therapies we offer include:

  • Adventure therapy
  • Art therapy
  • Meditation
  • Yoga

Privacy & Comfort

Another component we consider extremely important for the best PTSD treatment centers is comfort. Our beautiful residence on 27 acres of woodlands does not look or feel like a hospital. Because PTSD causes severe anxiety, comfort can play a massive role in reducing distress. Our facility is the most “home-like” rehab in Ohio.

Why Should I Consider an Ohio PTSD Treatment Center?

If you’re suffering from chronic PTSD, it’s all too common to feel hopeless about your condition. It can feel like your trauma and anxiety have touched every aspect of your life, from your family, to friends, and even career. But we assure you – there is hope.

Our trauma rehab doesn’t just treat your symptoms. We enable true healing from PTSD. We will help you work through – and work past – the trauma that has been following you.

Inpatient treatment has proven to be extremely beneficial for people suffering with PTSD, especially small programs with low populations and low client to staff ratios. Psychiatric hospital settings can sometimes bring about more trauma for people in an already vulnerable position. The Trails is a small and private rehab, allowing us to give you the personal attention required to overcome PTSD.

At The Trails, we’re happy to answer any questions you may have, give tours, or talk to family members about the types of treatment we offer. We go to great lengths to ensure our clients are comfortable entering our program.

How To Help A Loved One With PTSD

It’s heartbreaking to watch a loved one suffer from PTSD. You may feel powerless over your friend or family member’s condition, wanting more than anything to take away some of their pain. You may be nervous to think about what the future holds if their symptoms continue or worsen. As much as you want to help, it’s very important to understand PTSD before approaching a loved one.

Because PTSD symptoms are often brought about by triggers, approaching the subject can be a trigger in itself. Some helpful tips include:

  • Never pressure a loved one to talk about something they don’t want to talk about. Pressure to “open up” can bring about more anxiety or distress.
  • Educate yourself as much as possible about PTSD symptoms, triggers, and treatment options. The more you understand about the illness, the more you will be able to help a loved one.
  • Be patient. For individuals to overcome PTSD, they must be internally motivated to receive treatment. Treatment often requires individuals to face & talk about their trauma, and possibly be exposed to uncomfortable emotions. Though these emotions become manageable through the treatment process, it’s normal for people to need time before they are ready to talk.
  • Don’t take it personally if your loved one reacts defensively. Even when you are educated and approach the subject tactfully, individuals suffering with PTSD can sometimes react defensively if you offer help. Due to anxiety and distress, they may feel as though you are giving up on them. Always approach your loved one with empathy and assure them you don’t blame them for their symptoms – that you want more than anything for them to go back to enjoying life like they did before their trauma. 
  • Remember that offering help can be the best thing you can do for a loved one. PTSD can have dire consequences for some individuals. Receiving treatment can be life saving.

How Do I Start PTSD Treatment in Ohio?

The first step is to give us a call at 866-959-9910. Our phone is always answered by a live person: a compassionate mental health specialist. Whether you are seeking help for yourself or a loved one, we can answer any questions you have, verify insurance benefits, provide no-obligation pre-assessments, and recommend a level of care.

If you aren’t a fit for our program, we can help with recommendations for next steps or where to find help for your situation.

  • I decided to go to The Trails last March after a combination of seasonal depression and burnout had me in a tough spot, and it was what I needed and more. By the … read more end of the month, I finally felt like myself again, and I made a lot more personal growth than I had honestly expected to make. As the other reviews have stated, the house and the property are beautiful, the therapists are skilled and respectful, and the rest of the staff was so supportive and welcoming. But I also wanted to leave a more comprehensive review for anyone who is considering The Trails for themselves or a loved one and, like me, feels more comfortable when you know what to expect!
    As with most mental health programs, you will spend a few hours in group therapy every weekday. Even having my fair share of individual therapy under my belt, I found the daily group therapy very educational and well led. They pull from many different schools of therapy, including CBT, DBT, and ACT, so I think that everyone could find something valuable to take away, regardless of what brings you in. My individual therapist was incredible, she was knowledgeable, optimistic, and honest, and I only heard positive things from the other patients about their therapists. Group therapy would often be held outside, or even while on walks through the trails, which I really enjoyed. I was honestly hesitant of group therapy at first, but it was not only informative, but also deeply comforting to be able to speak openly about mental health struggles with people who could relate and provide support. There were also weekly visits from a psychiatric nurse practitioner who worked with us to make adjustments to medications. They had GeneSight testing available to test and see what medications you're genetically predisposed to be more compatible with, which is great information to have when you only have a month to make adjustments. That being said, you will not leave The Trails without a solid discharge plan, whether that means a step-down program like PHP or IOP, or just making sure you are set up to continue with a therapist and psychiatrist after returning home.
    Though most of the day's schedule is composed of group therapy, there were also weekly visits from different instructors, such as yoga, somatic breathing, sound baths, and naturopathy. These not only brought variety to the schedule, but they also fostered a more ground-up approach to therapeutic care which I found very beneficial. In general, there was an emphasis on holistic care; the importance of our physical, social, and spiritual health was also stressed and supported. There was healthy and tasty food prepared daily, plenty of opportunities for gentle exercise, and self care was strongly encouraged. We had regular game nights, movie nights, and other non-treatment related activities that provided a nice break to destress and have some fun. There were plenty of puzzles, coloring books, and some crafts to work on there, but I would recommend bringing your own non-electronic entertainment, as the days can be long without your phone or tv to keep you busy!
    If you can swing a month away from home, I strongly recommend reaching out and seeing what your insurance will cover. I ended up paying about the same as I was going to spend on a (modest) week-long vacation I was initially planning to take to try to combat my burnout, and given that I had a month of comfortable housing, home cooked meals, and daily therapy, The Trails was a much better deal.
    All of this to say, I really loved my time at The Trails and I'm extremely grateful to the staff for making it such a healing experience. I really think anyone could benefit from a stay there, but especially if you are in a place where you need a break from everything and a supportive environment to get you back on track, I can say for certain The Trails can provide that.

Everyone went above and beyond to make me comfortable and make my experience wonderful. The therapists, BHTs and the nurses are just some of the best people I have ever met. I am so thankful for the experience and it has truly been life changing. I will always be so grateful for the opportunity I received by going. I've made life long bonds and connections in ways I have never experienced. Thank you so much for the support!

    I am so grateful for my month-long experience at The Trails. The staff are exceptionally kind and supportive, the facility and grounds are beautiful, and the small size created a family-like experience. It was a wonderful balance of therapy, holistic wellness, and group interaction.
    I have grown so much through this experience and I could not recommend it more for those seeking this type of support.
