The culmination of more than 25 years of clinical work and research, this is the authoritative presentation of cognitive processing therapy (CPT) for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Written by the treatment’s developers, the book includes session-by-session guidelines for implementation, complete with extensive sample dialogues and 40 reproducible client handouts. It explains the theoretical and empirical underpinnings of CPT and discusses how to adapt the approach for specific populations, such as combat veterans, sexual assault survivors, and culturally diverse clients. The large-size format facilitates photocopying and day-to-day use. Purchasers also get access to a webpage where they can download and print the reproducible materials.

CPT is endorsed by the U.S. Departments of Veterans Affairs and Defense, the International Society of Traumatic Stress Studies, and the U.K. National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) as a best practice for the treatment of PTSD.

See also Getting Unstuck from PTSD by Patricia A. Resick, Shannon Wiltsey Stirman, and Stefanie T. LoSavio, which presents CPT in a guided self-help format for trauma survivors.

    This is a great book for learning CPT. I'm already well versed in CBT, which is similar, so it was easy to follow along and learn CPT. Many of the tools have works really well for my patients, I would highly recommend this as a great supplement for any other CPT course you are taking.

    This is the civilian version of their manual for the VA clinicians to use with their clients who suffer from PTSD. This is a manual for clinicians use. This book has all of the clinical trial references and documentation in the first couple chapters and it is impressive. As a psychotherapist I have begun to use this manual with my clients and am experiencing good results so far. I am looking forward to using all of the resources in this manual with all of my clients who suffer from PTSD. I can also see how CPT would be useful for Acute Stress Disorder as well. Maybe even depression.
