Cognitive Processing Therapy 
for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is an evidence based psychotherapy treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Having PTSD can feel exhausting and isolating.  It changes the beliefs we hold about ourselves, others, and the world in areas such as trust, power/control, intimacy and safety. CPT challenges the way we perceive ourselves and the world around us by creating a new understanding and conceptualization of traumatic experiences.
