PTSD Treatment for Women at Sol
Sol Women’s Treatment is an all-female outpatient program in Riverside, California, built for women carrying trauma. We hold a maximum of 25 clients at a time, so no one becomes a case number. Care is led by our founder and Chief Clinical Officer, Tania Acevedo, MA, LPCC, and shaped around what feels tolerable to you rather than what fits a schedule.
You can begin at whichever level of care fits your life right now: Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP), or our Outpatient Program (OP). If home does not feel steady enough while you do this work, supportive housing with a 24/7 female house manager is available alongside your program.
What is PTSD?
PTSD is how the nervous system holds on to trauma, showing up as flashbacks, broken sleep, hyperarousal, or numbness. In a women-only program in Riverside, you can process what happened at a pace that feels safe.
PTSD can follow one event or years of it. Common signs include:
Intrusive symptoms. Flashbacks, nightmares, memories that arrive uninvited.
Hyperarousal. Broken sleep, a jumpy startle response, irritability that surprises you.
Avoidance. Steering around people, places, or conversations that bring it back.
Shifts in mood and thinking. Shame, guilt, fear, or a flat kind of numbness.
Dissociation. Feeling far away from yourself when stress rises.
PTSD affects women at roughly twice the rate it affects men, about 8 in 100 women compared with 4 in 100 men over a lifetime, according to the VA National Center for PTSD. If these patterns are wearing down your work, your relationships, or your sense of safety, there is gentle, structured help nearby in Riverside.
Do I Have Trauma or PTSD?
Trauma touches almost everyone at some point. PTSD is more likely when:
Triggers bring intense distress or panic rather than discomfort.
Sleep, mood, or concentration are making ordinary days hard.
You steer around reminders to keep yourself together.
You feel detached, on edge, or unsafe in your own body.
You do not need a diagnosis in hand to reach out. Our team can help you name what is happening and find the level of outpatient support that fits.
How PTSD Treatment Works at Sol
Reach out and verify your insurance
Tell us as much or as little as you want. Share your policy details and we will confirm your benefits. A woman from our admissions team responds within 24 hours.
A gentle assessment
One of our clinicians listens to your history, your symptoms, what sets things off, and what you are hoping for. You decide what to share and when.
Your plan and level of care
Together we choose
PHP,
IOP, or
OP based on what you need right now.
Supportive housing is there if you want more structure between sessions.
Your weekly rhythm
Individual therapy, including
EMDR when it is a fit, alongside skills groups drawing on CBT and DBT, plus holistic supports like mindfulness, art, music, and somatic work.
Pacing you set
Trauma work does not have to mean reliving everything. We move at a speed that keeps your body and mind settled.
Stepping down
As things steady, you move to a lighter level of care with a continuing plan so the ground you gained stays yours.
Therapies We Use for PTSD
EMDR. Works with traumatic memories so they lose some of their charge, without requiring you to narrate every detail. Somatic therapy. Gentle, body-based work for a nervous system stuck in alarm. Group therapy. Time with other women who understand, which is often where shame starts to loosen. Holistic therapy. Whole-person supports that care for the body while the mind heals. Your mix is chosen with you, not handed to you. You can see every option on our therapies page.
PTSD and Co-Occurring Conditions in Women
PTSD rarely arrives on its own. Many women come to us carrying more than one thing at once, and treating those things in the same room, with the same team, tends to work better than treating them in separate places. Your plan can include support for:
Substance use that began as a way to cope
Our co-occurring disorders care looks at the whole picture, so you are not managing several treatment plans on your own.
What to Expect at Your First Appointment
A warm welcome
We show you around, get you settled, and make sure you feel comfortable before anything else begins.
A gentle assessment
A clinician asks about your symptoms, what has been hard lately, and who is in your corner. Nothing is required of you that you are not ready for.
Goals and a starting plan
Together we set a few near-term goals and outline your first weeks in PHP, IOP, or OP.
Next steps
We schedule your first sessions and talk through practical things, including
supportive housing if that would help.
