This comprehensive and evidence-based book offers readers a practical and accessible framework for understanding, formulating, and treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) using the cognitive model. While cognitive therapy is a highly effective treatment for PTSD, clinical complexity can sometimes complicate the process and limit its effectiveness. Trauma memories themselves can be complex, with associated meanings that may resist change, and individuals may struggle to engage with these memories without feeling overwhelmed. Additionally, problems that commonly arise alongside PTSD, such as comorbid psychological or physical disorders, social problems, and ongoing risks, further add to clinical complexity.

To address these challenges, this book combines the science and art of therapy, demonstrating how to approach these issues while holding firm to the principles of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). It showcases how therapists can flex and creatively adapt techniques for each unique circumstance, ensuring that treatment is tailored to the individual's needs. Rich case studies, practical tips, and frequently asked questions are used throughout the book to illustrate the approach and provide readers with real-world examples.

Written by clinicians for clinicians, this book serves as a valuable treatment manual for overcoming obstacles in PTSD treatment and enhancing therapy skills. It synthesizes the latest research into a practical guide that empowers readers to provide effective and compassionate care to those suffering from PTSD.
