Expert Trauma & Grief Therapy (PTSD)

PTSD Therapy Counseling and PTSD Treatment Denver CO

In working with psychological trauma, the challenge is learning how to remember without reliving. The therapists at the Denver Psychotherapy Center have over 18,000 hours of experience teaching our clients to accept and control post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and complex PTSD treatment (C-PTSD). All of AMI's therapists have extensive training in Buddhist psychology and meditation. Buddhist psychology and meditation now form the very foundation of modern trauma treatment.

In fact, Dr. Wilson is a Buddhist chaplain, and Ms. Julia Wilson is both a psychotherapist and a trained tantric Buddhist practitioner. Our clinical expertise along with our Buddhist spiritual training empowers clients to control the symptoms of their PTSD and C-PTSD.

People don't drown because they can't swim; they drown because they panic.

Sometimes trauma occurs in a single instance:

...such as a car accident or being the victim of a crime. 

 

Sometimes trauma occurs over long periods of time:

... like prolonged childhood abuse, deprivation, and neglect, prolonged bullying at home or school, etc. 

 

Whether your trauma was acute (PTSD) or developmental (C-PTSD) in nature, evidence-based therapies and our expertise in Buddhist psychology can help you heal. At Denver Psychotherapy Center, we use only scientifically validated approaches with success rates well above national averages.

Here Are The Symptoms of PTSD and C-PTSD:

If you experience three or more of the following, consider scheduling an evaluation:

  • Depression
  • Intense anger
  • A sense of disconnection from loved ones
  • Anhedonia: inability to enjoy activities that once brought pleasure
  • Frequent hypervigilance ("high anxiety") or feeling “triggered” without a clear cause
  • Alcohol and Substance Dependence
  • Sexual dysfunction or loss of interest in sex
  • Intrusive flashbacks or dissociative episodes
  • Night terrors, sleepwalking, or sleep disturbances

Quick FAQ's

  • What Is "Sex Addiction" and Can It Be Treated?

    Sex addictions are commonly considered to be habitual or even compulsive sexual activities that allow people to exit from connected, authentic and healthy life activities.

  • Do all of your doctors offer Buddhist therapy?

    Dr. Parker Wilson is Buddhist minister and retired psychologist, and he can provide advisement based on an extensive understanding and practice of Buddhist psychology and meditative technology. Dr. Wilson is a university professor, doctor of clinical psychology, and a practicing Mahayana Buddhist. He has been highly trained in Buddhist and existential psychology and meditation by some of the greatest living Buddhist masters of our time.

  • Isn't MBCT (Mindfulness) associated with Buddhism?

    The fundamental techniques for developing mindfulness, while rooted in the teachings of Buddhism, are actually more scientific than religious in nature. Buddhist psychology asks one to deeply analyze one's own existential experience. In other words, unlike traditional religious belief systems, Buddhism is not a faith or dogma based system; nor do its practitioners seek special consideration from a higher power, nor do they seek to convert others to their way of thinking. It is, therefore, more akin to a deep philosophy and empirical understanding.

  • What kinds of therapy does AMI offer?

    Primarily AMI offers cognitive psychotherapy; in particular Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT), which is considered the modern standard of care for many types of depression, anxiety, stress, grief, and anger management issues.

  • How much will my therapy cost?

    The Awakened Mind Institute has very competitive clinical fees; this is especially true given the quality of treatment our doctors offer. Generally speaking, individuals and / or families with a household income between $60,000 and $150,000 (or more) find AMI's clinical fees to be affordable.
