Summary

This study tests a new, fast-acting brain stimulation treatment for PTSD. Instead of the usual 6-7 weeks of daily sessions, this approach delivers 10 targeted treatments per day for just 5 days. Researchers will enroll 40 adults with PTSD to see if this accelerated method can reduce symptoms like flashbacks and anxiety more quickly than a fake (sham) treatment.
