Greetings! I’m Lowra (Laura), embracing the Welsh spelling of my name. As a Cis-gender woman, my journey in the field of mental health is rooted in the belief that the most profound knowledge one can possess is self-awareness—a sentiment beautifully captured by the Welsh Proverb, “The best knowledge is to know yourself.”

When our personal power is taken—or slowly given away—it creates a void. Many people try to fill that space by losing themselves in relationships, surrendering to others, or turning to habits that no longer serve them. What’s often missing is the ability to feel and honor our emotions fully. Unprocessed experiences tend to repeat until they are understood and integrated. Many men and women have been shamed away from their feelings through family dynamics, culture, or trauma. Reclaiming emotional truth is essential for healing and growth.

How does cognitive processing therapy work?
A CPT therapist helps a client evaluate their thoughts about the trauma they experienced, focusing on maladaptive or self-blaming thoughts that can exacerbate symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, or depression. The therapist will work with a client to help them learn to challenge such thoughts and consider different perspectives. The therapist is also likely to ask a client to work on these techniques at home between meetings, such as writing an account of their trauma that can be read aloud during a future session.
What is cognitive processing therapy for PTSD?
Cognitive processing therapy (CPT) is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy primarily used in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) to treat individuals who experienced abuse or violence, who survived natural disasters, who were first responders to such incidents, or who otherwise experienced trauma.
How long does cognitive processing therapy last?
CPT is a short-term therapy. Whether conducted one-on-one or in a group, a complete set of CPT sessions typically includes 12 weekly sessions, along with tasks for clients to complete at home, although this can vary depending on a client’s needs or a therapist’s particular treatment plan. Sessions typically last 60 or 90 minutes.
How effective is cognitive processing therapy?
A large body of research supports the use of CPT to treat people experiencing PTSD, finding it to be effective among different age groups, either in one-on-one therapy sessions or in a group therapy environment. Research suggests that although the initial sessions may be difficult, clients tend to begin to feel positive progress after the first few sessions, and that the benefits tend to last well after the therapy ends.
