“Evidence-based Treatments for Trauma-Related Psychiatric Disorders”
Prof. em. Ulrich Schnyder, MD
University of Zurich
This webinar gives an overview of the currently available empirically supported treatments for PTSD. Trauma-focused psychotherapies have their specific characteristics but the commonalities outweigh the differences by far. A short overview of pharmacotherapeutic treatments for PTSD, including psychedelics, will be given. Promising future developments include, e.g., a number of non-pharmacological and non-psychological approaches, the combination of treatments to address comorbidities, “mini-interventions” for specific problems trans-diagnostically, and treatment elements aimed at enhancing resilience. Importantly, psychotherapists working with trauma survivors should develop their culture sensitivity.
