CPT is a cognitive-behavioural therapy specifically designed to address symptoms related to post-traumatic stress disorder. Thoughts change as a result of trauma and get people stuck in ways that impact many aspects of their lives. The focus is on making connections between thoughts, feelings, body sensations and what you are doing/not doing (behaviours and avoidance). This treatment is usually at least 12 sessions, and can vary depending on the person and presenting symptoms.
PE is a cognitive-behavioural therapy. The focus of this treatment is to confront one’s fears. The approach gradually builds on experience and various aspects of a person’s trauma-related memories, feelings, and situations. The aim is to learn that these aspects are not dangerous or threatening, and do not need to be avoided. This treatment is at least 8 sessions, and can vary depending on the person and presenting symptoms.
This approach works with people to make sense of their lives, through understanding more about their internal landscape, and the way they interact with the world. This approach supports people in accessing the present moment, freeing themselves from old patterns, and provides an opportunity to bring acceptance and compassion to oneself.
This approach explores a number of practices that a person can use daily. The intent is to support people in building awareness moment to moment, through purposefully paying attention, in an open and non judgemental way. A daily mindfulness practice can promote healing, reduce suffering, and help people connect to themselves.
