Meet Maria, a 34-year-old accountant who had always been a confident and independent person. That changed after she survived a serious car crash. While Maria physically recovered from her injuries, the psychological impact lingered. She began experiencing flashbacks, nightmares, and a deep sense of dread when driving or even being near a car. Maria avoided situations that reminded her of the accident, which started to interfere with her work and personal life.
Feeling trapped and unable to move forward, Maria sought help at Dynamic Health Clinic. During her initial consultation, the team recommended a trauma-focused treatment plan combining EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy and ketamine-assisted psychotherapy sessions.
EMDR therapy allowed Maria to process the traumatic memories in a safe and controlled environment. Through guided sessions, Maria began to reframe her experience, reducing the intensity of her flashbacks and the emotional grip of the accident. The ketamine sessions complemented this work, providing a space for Maria to explore deeper emotional healing and a renewed sense of calm.
Over five months, Maria started noticing significant changes. The nightmares subsided, and she felt a growing sense of control over her emotions. She gradually became more comfortable in situations that used to trigger her anxiety, like driving short distances. With the support of her therapist and the integration of ketamine therapy, Maria began to reclaim her life and rediscover her sense of self.
Today, Maria feels like she is truly living again. Dynamic Health Clinic’s innovative and compassionate approach to trauma therapy empowered her to heal and move forward with confidence and resilience.
