Endorsed by the U.S. Departments of Veterans Affairs and Defense, the International Society of Traumatic Stress Studies, and the U.K. National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) as a best practice for the treatment of PTSD, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is an evidence-based approach to treating trauma that helps clients:
Understand why recovery from traumatic events is difficult and how symptoms affect daily life
Reduce distress related to memories of the trauma
Decrease emotional numbing and avoidance of trauma reminders
Improve day-to-day living by decreasing depression, anxiety, guilt or shame
Presented by CPT co-developer Dr. Kathleen Chard, this 2-day intensive training will encompass every step of this highly structured, 12-session cognitive treatment approach from start to finish, complete with opportunities to practice, ask questions, and receive constructive feedback from both your peers and Dr. Chard herself.
