Implementation of Evidence-based Psychotherapy for PTSD

Technology-enhanced Group Tele-consultation. This consultation method requires that participants be prepared to review and receive feedback on audiorecorded CPT sessions in a group format. The CPT expert randomly selects two clinician sessions each week that have been audiorecorded to use for feedback and discussion in group teleconference based on procedures used in previous training initiatives (Stirman, Bhar, et al., 2010). Five- to twenty-minute segments of the two sessions will be shared within the group consultation. The CPT expert will provide feedback on the sessions with an emphasis on review of key learning points. These consultation group sessions will be facilitated with collaborative meeting software that includes audio file uploading.

Standard Tele-consultation Group. The CPT expert will randomly select clinicians for case presentation each week. Each clinician will be responsible for verbally presenting on their CPT cases throughout the 6-month period of consultation course. No audiorecorded content will be reviewed within the calls. All other procedures used in the above condition will be used here.
