Trauma Recovery

PTSD & Trauma Psychiatric Care in Dallas, TX

Trauma-informed medical care to soothe an overworked nervous system, alleviate nightmares, and support deep healing.

Compassionate, Trauma-Informed Psychiatry

Traumatic experiences can leave the brain's alarm system permanently stuck in fight-or-flight mode. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) causes intrusive memories, hypervigilance, emotional numbing, and severe sleep disruption.

At 24-7 Shalom Psychiatry, we provide trauma-informed psychiatric care in a safe, non-judgmental atmosphere. We prescribe targeted medications that reduce autonomic nervous system arousal, enabling you to feel safe in your body again.

Key PTSD Symptoms We Address

  • Intrusive Memories & Flashbacks: Overwhelming sensory recall of past traumatic events.
  • Hyperarousal & Startle Response: Feeling constantly on edge, irritable, or watchful of surroundings.
  • Trauma Nightmares & Insomnia: Severe sleep disruption and nocturnal panic.
  • Emotional Numbness & Avoidance: Disconnection from loved ones and avoidance of trauma triggers.

Trauma Pharmacotherapy Protocols

  • Nightmare & Flashback Suppression (Prazosin): Alpha-1 adrenergic blockers specifically used to reduce nighttime adrenaline spikes and trauma nightmares.
  • Serotonergic Mood Support: Evidence-backed SSRIs/SNRIs (Sertraline, Paroxetine, Venlafaxine) to restore baseline emotional resilience.
  • Collaborative Care with Therapists: Partnering with your EMDR or trauma therapist to coordinate medicine with psychotherapy.
