About Longmont Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Therapy
Our Journey and Mission
Longmont Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Therapy (LPTST) was founded in 2017 with a vision to provide a dedicated online resource for individuals seeking understanding, support, and guidance regarding post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The website’s inception stemmed from the recognition of an urgent need for accurate and unbiased information on this complex mental health topic.
Our story began as a passion project by Dr. Emma Wilson, a renowned clinical psychologist specializing in PTSD treatment.
