Highlighting alternative therapies for trauma, the work rethinks PTSD treatment by avoiding approaches that force painful memory retrieval. Drawing on clinical expertise and military experience, it examines innovative methods like mindfulness meditation, yoga, acupuncture and MDMA-assisted psychotherapy with practical case insights.
This book surveys promising alternatives to CBT and prolonged exposure therapy that are easier for trauma survivors to tolerate. It explores their strengths and limitations and provides practical guidelines for implementation.
