CBT for PTSD: Basics and Rationale

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.

    Can it be possible to heal or get better with a less-developed-than-oneself-therapist referred by psychiatry, who is dismissive, superficial, quick to conclusions, omits soothing and creating a safe space, and to correct himself upon being pointed it out, when one feels insulted and rejected, but he seems otherwíse not unkind and not the least healed person?

    What happens if the “memories” or “traumas” never happened to someone but they have convinced themselves that it has?

    There are a few questions to ask: Was this vicarious trauma? Did they see this on TV? How long after the event did the triggers come up?

    If they are responding as though the traumas did happen to them (even though they did not - as can be the case in memories of psychosis and delirium) the treatment can still be used.

    The "social conventions" on 9:00 is such a terrible thing to bring up in relation to CBT. It's implying that it's other people's fault that trauma isn't processed. When in reality they are, in 99.99% are trying to help and genuinely believe that are offering a reasonable perspective. By the way, in some cases, it is a very good point of view that can help people - probably not for those dealing with PTSD, though; but I wouldn't expect average Joe to know that. A clinical psychologists, on the other hand, need to do better
