First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 03, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study tested a new therapy called Processing of Positive Memories Technique (PPMT) for people with PTSD. Unlike standard treatments that focus on traumatic memories, PPMT helps patients recall and detail positive memories. 70 adults with PTSD were randomly assigned to either PPMT or supportive counseling to see if PPMT reduces PTSD symptoms and stress-related biomarkers.
