Today is PTSD Awareness Day—a reminder that healing from trauma is not only possible, but deeply deserving of attention and support.

At Simply Bee, we honor this day by continuing our commitment to trauma-informed care through EMDR therapy, the gold standard in PTSD treatment. EMDR helps reprocess painful memories so they no longer feel overwhelming, allowing individuals to regain control, confidence, and peace of mind.

If you or someone you love is living with PTSD, know that you are not alone—and support is within reach.
