Toowong Private Hospital - Military Service Trauma Recovery (PTSD) course

The TPH Trauma Recovery Program is designed to help you recover from your exposure to trauma, improve your mood and reduce symptoms. Our program is fully accredited to the National Accreditation Standards for Trauma Recovery (PTSD) Programs to ensure we utilise the latest research to help with your recovery. 

The program consists of a six-week intensive phase which runs four days a week, followed by a further six weeks with two-day sessions in alternate weeks. Final follow-up sessions are held at three and nine months. Treatment includes group sessions with exclusively military and ex-military personnel and individual sessions which focus solely on you.

During the sessions we will work with you to:

• Develop skills that help manage anxiety, depression and anger 
•  Enhance communication skills and build healthy relationships
• Improve sleep and decrease nightmares 
• Manage intrusive thoughts and images 
• Challenge avoidance behaviours 
• Build your knowledge of resources and support options 
• Minimise the risk of relapse

Partners are also welcome to join for select sessions which have been regarded as highly beneficial.
