PTSD Treatment
PTSD Treatment in New Jersey
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a mental health condition that can develop after a traumatic event. People with PTSD experience flashbacks, nightmares, sleep problems, emotional numbness, hypervigilance, mood changes, and more.
Capital Psychiatry Group’s mission is to deliver holistic treatment for PTSD (therapy + medication) in New Jersey. Our PTSD psychiatrists/psychologists work with patients via telehealth & in-person clinics to understand their PTSD symptoms & curate personalized care.
When Trauma Won’t Let Go, CPG Helps You Reclaim Life
In PTSD, your nervous system is working relentlessly to protect you even from harms that do not exist. If you’re always on guard, battling with anxiety, startled responses, or sleep disruption, you’re not struggling with PTSD alone. About 6 in 100 U.S. adults will experience PTSD at some point in life.
The PTSD psychiatrists & psychologists of CPG have extensive experience in delivering PTSD treatment for children, adults, and adolescents via counseling, therapy, and SSRIs/SNRIs to reduce symptoms, stabilize sleep, and support daily functioning. Same-day & tele/walk-in access to our PTSD clinics ensures help that’s private, judgment-free, and is always within reach.
Symptoms of PTSD and Trauma-Related Disorders
Clinically, PTSD symptoms often group into four clusters. Recognizing your symptom patterns can help ptsd psychiatrists make an effective, personalized plan.

Avoidance Symptoms
- Avoiding thoughts or feelings about the trauma
- Avoiding reminiscent people, places, or activities
Changes in Cognition & Mood
- Persistent negative beliefs
- Guilt, shame, or self-blame
- Loss of interest in things you used to enjoy
- Feeling detached or estranged
- Troubled nostalgia of the traumatic event
Reactivity and Alertness Changes
- Hypervigilance ("constantly on guard")
- Being easily startled
- Irritability or anger outbursts
- Sleep problems (falling or staying asleep)
- Difficulty concentrating & restlessness

- First Session: We discuss your experiences, triggers, sleep, concentration, and daily functioning.
- Clinical Tools: Our providers aligned with DSM-5 criteria to measure intrusion, avoidance, mood/cognition changes, and arousal/reactivity.
