Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE) for posttraumtic stress disorder (PTSD) is one of the most effective treatments for PTSD currently available. However, given the vast research literature supporting PE, providers are still difficult to find and reluctance to deliver an exposure based treatment for trauma survivors persists. This webinar will provide a brief review of the research supporting PE, it will discuss how to decide who is a good candidate for PE, and we will go over what a typical course of PE would involve. Using PE with special populations, such as those who are substance abusers or have other comorbidities, will also be discussed.
