Cognitive–Behavioural Therapy and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy in the Treatment of Combat‐Related Post‐Traumatic Stress Disorder: A Comparative Effectiveness Study

Abstract

Both cognitive-behavioural therapy and psychodynamic psychotherapy have to be treatments offered in clinics for treating PTSD. Therapists who treat PTSD should be familiar with cognitive-behavioural and dynamic methods. The type of treatment chosen should be based on thorough psychosocial assessment.
