Women's Trauma Group
Cognitive processing therapy (CPT) designed to help women recover from posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) identifying automatic thoughts and increasing awareness of the relationship between a person's thoughts and feelings. The next phase involves formal processing of the trauma; intended to break the pattern of avoidance and enable emotional processing to take place for the client to clarify and modify their cognitive distortions. The final phase of treatment focuses on helping the client reinforce the skills they learned in the previous phase, with the intent that they can use those skills to further identify, evaluate, and modify their beliefs concerning their traumatic events.

Men's Trauma Group
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) is an evidenced-based treatment protocol found effective for the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Service members learn skills during the course of CPT that may be helpful when facing traumatic events in subsequent deployments. A goal of CPT is for service members to retain hypervigilance for dangerous situations but gain more mastery over when not to employ those skills.These acts may result in extreme cognitive and emotional distress, which may disrupt core beliefs about oneself and the world. CPT seeks to directly address related stuck points and help service members reconcile these internal conflicts.
