Complex PTSD, or C‑PTSD, develops from long-term, repeated trauma — often beginning in childhood or occurring in relationships where escape wasn’t possible. Unlike PTSD, which can develop after a single traumatic event, C‑PTSD is shaped by ongoing exposure to trauma over time. This can leave deep emotional scars that affect every part of daily life.

At Alleviant Integrated Mental Health, we understand how complex trauma can shape a person’s sense of safety, identity, and relationships. Healing from C‑PTSD is a long journey, but it’s not one you have to walk alone. With compassionate care and consistent strategies, it’s possible to find steadiness, relief, and even moments of peace.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a condition many have heard about, but fewer are familiar with Complex PTSD (C-PTSD)—a related yet distinct diagnosis that requires a unique approach to healing.

At Alleviant, we’re dedicated to helping you understand the differences and guiding those affected toward effective, compassionate treatment tailored to their needs.
