Prolonged Exposure Therapy (PE)
PE is the most researched intervention for PTSD, considered a first-line treatment by most guidelines throughout the world. It is a structured, evidence-based cognitive-behavioral treatment designed to help individuals confront trauma-related memories, feelings, and situations they have been avoiding. Over the course of 8-15 sessions, PE encourages participants to gradually face and process trauma-related triggers, reducing emotional distress over time and promoting recovery.
