Study Groups

Written Exposure Therapy
Written exposure therapy (Sloan et al., 2012) is a brief evidence-based treatment for PTSD (US Dept. of VA \& DoD, 2017), wherein patients are asked to write about their trauma memories for 30 minutes, with therapist instruction and feedback before and after each writing exercise.
Written Exposure Therapy
In this study, written exposure therapy is delivered in an online format with coaching from trained peer support specialists. Participants will complete 4-8 sessions, depending on their level of symptom reduction (i.e., allow for early termination when low symptom levels are achieved).
Imaginal Exposure Therapy
Imaginal exposure therapy will involve verbal recounting of trauma memories for 30 minutes with therapist instruction and feedback before and after each recounting exercise.
Imaginal Exposure Therapy
Delivery of imaginal exposure in this study will mirror the procedures used in WET. It will be delivered in an online format with coaching from trained peer support specialists. Participants will complete 4-8 sessions, depending on their level of symptom reduction (i.e., allow for early termination when low symptom levels are achieved).
