Description
Treating the Trauma of Rape: Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for PTSD
This comprehensive guide provides a cognitive-behavioral approach to assessing and treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) following rape. The authors offer complete instructions on planning treatment, introducing patients to interventions, and implementing nine exposure and stress management techniques.
Case examples illustrate how to implement these techniques, as well as explanations of how to cope with common problems and complications in treatment. A final chapter outlines three suggested treatment programs, enhancing the book's clinical utility for mental health professionals and those seeking support.
