Live Webinar February 7 - Bridging Distance: Clinical Opportunities and Challenges with Telehealth Delivery of Exposure Therapy for PTSD with Dr. Leslie Morland and Dr. Stephanie Wells

Telehealth delivery of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) treatments, such as exposure-based therapies, has significantly increased since the COVID-19 pandemic (Morland et al., in press). Exposure based therapies are one of the most effective forms of therapy for treating PTSD (VA & DOD, 2023) and telehealth allows more individuals to access and engage in these treatments. This webinar will review the state of the science of evidence for exposure-based PTSD therapies, such as prolonged exposure and written exposure therapy, delivered via telehealth. Steps to set the stage for the successful delivery of remote exposure-based care for PTSD will be discussed. Clinical case examples will be discussed to illustrate the unique benefits, as well as some common pitfalls and challenges, with using telehealth to deliver exposure therapies for PTSD. This webinar will help clinicians better understand how to successfully engage clients in exposure-based PTSD therapies delivered remotely.
