This post is part of an ongoing series on trauma healing. I’m trained in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), an evidence based treatment for PTSD that I’ve found can be very helpful to people who have experienced a variety of different types of traumatic experiences.
Especially in the context of treating trauma, it is essential for you as a therapy client to have information about the treatments you receive. Below is a list of resources for you to learn more about CPT to see if it may be a good fit for you:
- Psychology Today overview of CPT treatment
- Meta-analysis (a research study that looked at a bunch of other research studies) on the effectiveness of CPT
- Veterans Affairs website on CPT
- NPR podcast of a journalist who was treated with CPT for sexual assault trauma
- YouTube video by Psych Hub explaining CPT treatment
- Self guided workbook version of CPT
You deserve to have support around processing trauma so that you can feel more able to respond to the present moment rather than feeling stuck in the past. If you’re interested in CPT, don’t hesitate to reach out.
