Dr Lauren Hanegraaf explains CPT to her client

Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is a cognitive behavioural therapy designed to treat PTSD. It addresses negative beliefs or “stuck points” resulting from trauma. CPT involves 12 sessions, focusing on re-evaluating distorted beliefs and processing the trauma. Research supports its effectiveness in reducing PTSD, depression, and alcohol misuse symptoms.
