Healthy recovery program for PTSD after sexual trauma
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how to help people recover from PTSD symptoms after sexual trauma, including feeling mentally “contaminated.” You may be eligible if you currently meet criteria for PTSD and report these contamination feelings, and you can avoid starting other trauma treatments during the study.
