Learn the foundations and critical elements of CBT for PTSD from Dr. Barbara Rothbaum, an expert on CBT and prolonged exposure therapy.
In this presentation, Dr. Barbara Rothbaum explains the basics of cognitive behavioral treatments for PTSD, with an emphasis on prolonged exposure therapy.
Here are some highlights we’ve extracted from this video:
1. Cognitive behavioral treatments for PTSD involve addressing avoidance behaviors and promoting safe confrontations of the trauma in a therapeutic manner.
2. Prolonged exposure therapy (PE) is a specific exposure therapy protocol for PTSD which has been found effective across trauma populations and in different cultures.
3. PE aims to activate the trauma memories and non-threatening cues via exposure in order to correct information through safety, habituation/ extinction, and acceptance.
