PTS in the DMV
Living in the greater Washington area means access to many different resources. The trick is that you have to know what to look for. For the treatment of PTS, we recommend several local options that complement psychotherapy.
Doctors Mulvaney and Lynch are pioneers of the SGB treatment for PTS and are conveniently located at ROSM in Annapolis Maryland.
SGB or the Stellate Ganglion Block is a simple outpatient procedure similar to getting a nerve block for back pain. Instead of reducing physical pain, the SGB procedure helps to reduce the overactive fight or flight response. This provides lasting symptom relief.

For ketamine treatment of PTS we recommend the compassionate care of Dr. Eshkevari at Avesta. This treatment can help new neural pathways form reducing the symptoms of PTS, anxiety, treatment resistant depression, and suicidal ideation.
For members of our military community, we have a family resource practically in our backyard in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. Boulder Crest Foundation believes in the principle of Post-traumatic Growth (PTG) and offers retreats for veterans and their families.
