The good news is that effective treatments for PTSD and trauma are available, and individuals do not have to face these challenges alone. At Fortitude Healing Centers, we provide a range of evidence-based treatment options tailored to meet the unique needs of individuals in Moorestown, Cherry Hill, and the surrounding areas of New Jersey. Each program is designed to help clients stabilize, process their experiences, and build lasting coping skills.
For those experiencing severe PTSD symptoms or in crisis, inpatient treatment offers a safe and structured environment with 24/7 medical and therapeutic support. This level of care is especially important for individuals at risk of self-harm or whose symptoms make it unsafe to live independently. Inpatient treatment provides stabilization and intensive care, helping clients regain safety and strength before stepping down into less intensive programs.
Our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) offers a highly structured treatment environment for individuals who need intensive daytime support without 24/7 supervision. Clients attend daily therapy sessions and skill-building workshops, then return home or to a supportive living environment in the evenings. This balance allows clients to receive robust clinical care while practicing independence outside of treatment. For those transitioning further, the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) provides flexibility, with structured therapy sessions three to five days a week. IOP is ideal for individuals who need consistent support while also managing responsibilities such as work, school, or family.
Outpatient therapy is a suitable option for clients with mild or manageable PTSD symptoms or those stepping down from higher levels of care. Through weekly or biweekly sessions, clients meet with a licensed therapist to process emotions, strengthen coping strategies, and manage long-term symptoms. Medication management can also play an important role in treatment. Our board-certified psychiatrists design personalized medication plans, monitor progress closely, and make necessary adjustments. Medications such as antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, or sleep aids may be used to complement therapy and reduce severe symptoms like anxiety, depression, or sleep disturbances.
Counseling and psychotherapy remain central to PTSD treatment at Fortitude Healing Centers. We utilize evidence-based approaches such as Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE), which helps clients reduce avoidance and fear through gradual exposure to trauma-related thoughts and situations. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) assists in reframing negative thought patterns, while Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) uses guided eye movements to reprocess traumatic memories. Group therapy provides connection and shared understanding, while family therapy fosters open communication and healing within loved ones. Together, these approaches create a comprehensive system of care that helps individuals overcome trauma and rebuild their lives with hope and resilience.
