PTSD
The myths and realities of PTSD
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder characterised by intense and disturbing thoughts, feelings, and emotions resulting from a traumatic event. Many misconceptions surround PTSD – such as the belief that it only affects military veterans, or that individuals with PTSD are simply weak. In reality, PTSD can affect anyone, regardless of their background or profession. It’s a complex condition that can arise from various traumatic experiences, including accidents, natural disasters, or personal assaults. People with PTSD may find themselves avoiding situations that remind them of their trauma and experiencing intrusive thoughts. Left untreated, PTSD can lead to anxiety, insomnia, and difficulty engaging in once-enjoyable activities. It’s important to understand that PTSD is not a sign of weakness but a legitimate and serious mental health condition – with curated treatment and specialised support, individuals with PTSD can manage their symptoms and lead fulfilling, purpose-driven lives.

What is Harbor London?
Understanding that PTSD can stem from various traumatic events – such as accidents, natural disasters, personal assaults, or combat experiences—we offer curated, whole-person treatment designed to address each individual’s unique needs. Our approach to PTSD is deeply rooted in empathy and expertise – we recognise that PTSD often coexists with other mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, and mood disorders, and so our multidisciplinary team of psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, and nutritionists works collaboratively to develop comprehensive, individualised treatment plans that go beyond merely addressing symptoms.
By integrating therapeutic modalities such as cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), and mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), we aim to heal both the mind and the body. Our luxurious, private settings in elegant London properties provide a safe and serene environment conducive to enduring recovery, ensuring that you receive the utmost comfort and privacy during their stay.
Our team is committed to fostering long-term recovery from PTSD; the whole-person approach not only addresses the immediate impacts of trauma, but also equips clients with the tools and strategies needed to navigate life’s challenges beyond treatment. Through personalised care and ongoing support, we help individuals regain control, rebuild their lives, and rediscover a sense of purpose and wellbeing.
How we work
PTSD, complex PTSD, & how they derail lives
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and complex PTSD (C-PTSD) are serious conditions that can significantly disrupt lives. PTSD often results from a single traumatic event, while C-PTSD develops from prolonged exposure to trauma, such as ongoing abuse or captivity. Both forms of PTSD can severely impact mental health, leading to mood disorders, anxiety, and even bipolar disorder. Individuals suffering from these conditions frequently experience emotional dysregulation, which can manifest as intense and unpredictable emotional responses.
Anxiety and stress are common in PTSD and C-PTSD, further complicating daily functioning. The persistent state of hyperarousal can lead to burnout and exhaustion, making it difficult to maintain work or personal relationships. These conditions can also coexist with personality disorders, which exacerbate the difficulties in self-perception and interpersonal interactions. Substance abuse is another significant concern. Many individuals with PTSD or C-PTSD turn to drugs or alcohol as a coping mechanism, leading to addiction.
The cycle of substance abuse and trauma can create a destructive feedback loop, further entrenching the person in their struggles. The interplay of PTSD, addiction, and other mental health disorders requires comprehensive treatment strategies that address all aspects of the individual’s life.

PTSD treatment wrapped entirely around you
We believe in a personalised approach to PTSD treatment, ensuring that each aspect of care is tailored to your unique experiences and needs. PTSD is a deeply personal condition, often stemming from highly individual and traumatic events. Whether your PTSD is the result of a single incident like an accident or an ongoing situation such as prolonged abuse, our bespoke treatment plans are designed to address your specific symptoms and underlying challenges.
For instance, imagine an individual who develops PTSD following a serious car accident. Her symptoms include flashbacks, severe anxiety, and avoidance of driving or even being in a car. At Harbor, her treatment plan would likely include cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) to help her process the trauma, exposure therapy to gradually reintroduce her to driving in a safe and controlled manner, and mindfulness techniques to manage her anxiety. Alternatively, another individual may experience complex PTSD stemming from years of childhood abuse. In this case, treatment might focus more on complex trauma therapies, such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help reprocess traumatic memories, and family therapy to rebuild trust and improve relationships.
In both cases, our curated and whole-person approach integrates various therapeutic modalities, ensuring that every aspect of an individual’s life is considered and catered for in their PTSD treatment. Often, this includes addressing co-occurring conditions such as depression, anxiety, and substance abuse, which are common among PTSD sufferers. Our goal is to create a nurturing, luxurious, and confidential residential environment where clients feel supported and empowered to heal – ensuring that their PTSD treatment truly wraps around their unique life, and caters to their unique journey towards recovery.
