@sharifelleithy and I made a website! https://t.co/eoXhm3u46z - still a work in progress but a collection of resources for therapists treating PTSD, a link to our forthcoming book and an FAQs blog (we’ll try and add a new one every week). Check it out 👇

Very pleased with this new O/A paper from our group led by @_c_hitchcock @mrccbu reporting the first UK clinical trial supporting trauma-focused cognitive therapy for very young children (aged 2-8 ) with #PTSD. Funded by @NIHRresearch. https://t.co/S8n0W8hZoW

[Tim Dalgleish @TimDalgleish]

We are recruiting adolescents with #PTSD following a single-event trauma to evaluate a therapist-assisted app-based/online intervention (@The_MRC OPTYC trial). Very keen to work with clinical colleagues and schools to identify interested young people. See https://t.co/LuiCwbVcdi

[OPTYC Study @optycproject]

Please get in touch with any questions - always happy to chat. Young people, parents/carers, schools, GPs, and CAMHS can refer directly to us. We can also come into schools to do an assembly and run a screening for young people.

🚨 New publication alert 🚨

We found that children’s perceptions of their trauma memories are a more reliable predictor of post traumatic stress symptoms than the nature of their trauma narrative, which could have important implications for treatment:
