Description

This compact, clinician-friendly resource walks readers through cognitive-behavioral techniques and treatment packages for clients with PTSD, using case studies to illustrate how to troubleshoot common problems.

Research over the past three decades has confirmed that cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBTs) are among the most effective treatments for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). This book introduces clinicians to cognitive-behavioral techniques for PTSD and guides them in adopting treatment protocols.

Because myths about CBT for PTSD have been barriers to use, the book offers a clear view of the facts about the evidence-based therapies that offer such promise in helping clients to heal from their traumas. The goal of this clinician-friendly book is clear: to make CBT available to suffering clients.
