There are several treatment methods that are effective for treating PTSD. Research has shown that cognitive behavioral therapy, particularly prolonged exposure therapy, is one of the most effective treatment methods. There are also medication options that are available, with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), a classof antidepressants, being among the most commonly prescribed. For those in the Atlanta Metro area, we are conducting a treatment study using Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy in combination with a medication (d-Cycloserine) that has been shown to help fear decrease faster.
