What is Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)?

Traumatic events, such as road traffic accidents, sexual and non-sexual assaults, other violent crimes, industrial accidents, and life threatening medical complications can seriously affect a person’s psychological health. Most people who experience trauma will have some kind of psychological reaction, such as fear, sadness, guilt or anger. However, some people will go on to develop a severe reaction, called PTSD, which can seriously disrupt their life.

 

Individuals with PTSD experience unwanted memories and images of the traumatic event. They also may experience distress when they come across reminders of the trauma or have nightmares. They often feel jumpy, constantly “on guard”, sleep may become disturbed, they have problems with irritability and concentration. Individuals with PTSD also try to avoid situations, people or events that remind them of their trauma. People with PTSD require professional treatment.

 

 

What is the service?

The Centre for Traumatic Stress provides psychological assessment and treatment services for individuals who have experienced a traumatic event, and are experiencing posttraumatic stress reactions. The Centre provides different treatment programs for people who have suffered a trauma in the past month, as well as for people who have suffered trauma months or years earlier. The Centre also provides a specialised treatment program for serving and ex-police officers who have experienced trauma in the context of their duties. The Centre also provides treatment for those who are suffering problematic grief reactions after the death of a loved one.

 

The Centre for Traumatic Stress is involved in evaluating current treatments for PTSD and complicated grief. This means that individuals can get access to cutting-edge treatment at no cost. We can provide this free service because we have funding through a number of grants to conduct research into treatment programs.

 

The Centre is recognised both nationally and internationally, as a leading treatment and research clinic for PTSD. The unit receives referrals from other hospitals, Community Health Centres, NSW Police and other agencies across Sydney and NSW.

 

What sort of treatment is provided?

All treatment programs involve individual sessions of cognitive behaviour therapy. A number of treatment programs are offered by the unit including:

 

This program offers treatment for people who have experienced a motor vehicle accident, industrial accident, assault or other traumatic experience and are experiencing post-traumatic stress in the first month (known as Acute Stress Disorder, ASD). Treatment is comprised of five sessions and a long-term follow-up.

 

This program offers treatment for individuals who have experienced a traumatic experience more than one month ago, and are experiencing PTSD.

 

This is a confidential program that focuses on PTSD and other common reactions after sexual assault.

 

This program specifically addresses PTSD for current or ex-police officers. This program provides a confidential and anonymous treatment comprising of 12-16 sessions, focusing on the range of problems commonly experienced by police officers.

 

This program provides treatment for those who are suffering complicated grief reactions after the death of a loved one.

 

Who is the appropriate for the service?

The service is for adults who are experiencing posttraumatic stress or grief reactions. All patients are administered an initial assessment to determine the suitability of the Centre for the patient’s needs. If the Centre is not appropriate, suggestions for other agencies will be discussed.

 

As part of our intervention includes exposure-based treatments, individuals who are actively suicidal, psychotic, or who are currently dependent on substances cannot be treated in the Centre until these conditions are stabilised. The cognitive aspects of our treatment preclude individuals with moderate-to-severe head injuries, developmental disabilities and individuals with poor English comprehension. Individuals who have experienced childhood sexual assault, domestic violence, war-related trauma or torture may be referred to other specialist services.

 

What is the cost?

The program is free to all individuals.

 

Where is the service?

Treatment is conducted at Westmead Hospital .

 

How do I make a referral?

The Centre accepts self-referrals or individuals can be referred by a treating health professional. An initial psychological assessment is conducted to determine if the individual is appropriate for the treatment program.
