Adapting Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy across cultures 🧠🌐 One size doesn’t fit all. 💬 “Work with local mental health teams to see what fits—and what needs to change.” Session length, language & content must respect local needs. #GlobalMentalHealth #PE #PTSDTreatment

Did you know that June is PTSD Awareness Month? Everyone’s experience with PTSD is different, but no matter what: PTSD treatment works. Learn more or get help finding treatment by visiting ptsd.va.gov. #PTSDTreatmentWorks

Follow the client's meaning in PE therapy. 🌱 Processing happens best when we follow, not lead. 💬 “They bring their meaning & context. We learn from them.” The real flexibility lies in the client’s experience. #ClientCenteredCare #PE #TraumaTherapy #TherapyInPractice
