The negative impact that PTSD has on some spouses can include intimacy issues, caregiving fatigue and an increased susceptibility to marital problems when compared to partnerships where PTSD is not involved. It can also cause emotional, physical, mental, and even spiritual strain on relationships. Understanding how PTSD impacts the family system is one of the first steps in opening the conversation and finding resolution.
Topics include:
- Introduction and needs assessment
- Understanding PTSD and Trauma
- Stress, Anxiety, Depression: How to Cope
