What Is Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)?
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is a widely recognized and evidence-based treatment method designed to help you overcome the negative impacts of traumatic experiences. Initially developed for survivors of sexual assault, CPT has been adapted for various trauma survivors, including veterans, first responders, and individuals with PTSD.
At its core, CPT focuses on understanding how traumatic events have influenced your thoughts and feelings, leading to maladaptive beliefs and behaviors. By examining and challenging these thoughts, you can reframe your understanding of the trauma and develop healthier coping strategies. Through structured sessions and exercises, CPT empowers you to process your trauma in a safe and nurturing environment.
