Cognitive Therapy for Post Traumatic Stress Disorder
Professor Anke Ehlers, Institute of Psychiatry, King’s College, London
In the immediate aftermath of traumatic events, many people experience symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Many recover in the following months, but a significant subgroup develops chronic PTSD. Factors explaining the maintenance of the disorder are at the core of Ehlers and Clark’s (2000) cognitive model of chronic PTSD. First, people with chronic PTSD show excessively negative appraisals (“added meanings”) of the trauma and/or its sequelae that lead to a sense of current threat. Second, the nature of the trauma memory explains the occurrence of reexperiencing symptoms. Third, the patients’ appraisals motivate a series of dysfunctional behaviours and cognitive strategies (such as thought suppression, rumination, safety-seeking behaviours) that are intended to reduce the sense of current threat, but maintain the problem by preventing change in the appraisals and trauma memory, and /or lead to increases in symptoms. On the basis of the model, we have developed a new version of CBT that has three goals. First, the idiosyncratic negative appraisals of the trauma and/or its sequelae are identified and changed. Second, the trauma memory is elaborated. Third, the patient is encouraged to drop maintaining behaviours and cognitive strategies. The workshop starts by outlining the cognitive model. Case examples will be given to illustrate the different aspects of the model. Next, the techniques used in the treatment are described in detail and illustrated with clinical material and videotapes. Techniques include reliving, in vivo work, and cognitive interventions for patients with overgeneralised sense of danger, misinterpretation of PTSD symptoms, anger, shame or guilt. Goals: By the end of the workshop, participants should be able to: - Identify key processes in maintaining PTSD - Develop an idiosyncratic version of the cognitive model with their patients and - Be able to identify appropriate therapeutic techniques. Välkommen, Lars-Göran Öst Ewa Mörtberg
