Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a condition that develops in response to traumatic experiences, resulting in symptoms including such as flashbacks, hypervigilance, and a current sense of threat. The Psychology Tools For Overcoming PTSD Audio Collection offers a structured series of exercises designed to help clients manage these symptoms effectively.

Nightmares can be distressing and disorienting, especially for individuals with PTSD. While long-term treatments like trauma-focused CBT and EMDR are effective, this audio exercise offers immediate strategies to manage nightmares. Clinicians can guide clients using grounding techniques and self-soothing exercises to reduce disorientation and perceived threats upon waking.
