Peer Social Support During In Vivo Exposure for PTSD

Practice guidelines have identified that trauma-focused psychotherapies have most evidence for treatment PTSD. Prolonged Exposure (PE) is one type of trauma-focused psychotherapy. PE teaches you to gradually approach trauma-related memories, feelings, and situations that you have been avoiding since your trauma. By confronting these challenges, you can decrease your PTSD symptoms. Treatment will last anywhere from 8-12 weeks for 75-90 minutes, once per week.
