A Brief Educational and Anxiety Management Treatment Part 1
Despite the high prevalence and negative consequences of PTSD in those with serious mental illness, there has not been much attention paid to effective treatment of this condition within this population. In this webinar, the rationale and considerations for addressing PTSD in persons with serious mental illness is discussed. An overview of a brief, 3-session individual intervention to enhance coping with PTSD symptoms (specifically designed to meet the unique needs of people with serious mental illness), is reviewed.
This webinar consists of part 1 and part 2
