Complex Trauma Treatment Guidelines

Complex trauma is a mental health condition typically triggered by experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event.

Individuals who are experiencing PTSD may encounter different symptoms. However, the typical symptoms of this condition may include flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, irritability, and emotional numbness.

Everyone may experience a complex trauma in their life. However, individuals who work in high-risk environments may be more prone to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), such as military personnel, first responders, survivors of violence or abuse, individuals involved in accidents or natural disasters, as well as individuals with a history of mental health conditions.
