Cognitive Processing Therapy is a therapy where we look at
what you're telling yourself about why the trauma happened.
So we're basically looking at your thoughts
and how your thoughts are impacting your feelings
and how these things are impacting your life on a daily basis.
So in this particular treatment, we take time to actually
look at what you're telling yourself about a range of things.
We look at what you're telling yourself
about why the trauma happened.
We look at what you're telling yourself about others
and the world around you in a range of areas
like safety, trust, intimacy, power and control, and esteem.
So we take those things and sort of teach you new skills
for how to challenge or question the thought pattern
that you have that's getting in the way
of you living your life or recovering from PTSD.
