Summary

This study aims to understand how adolescents with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) experience psychotherapy. Researchers will interview 65 teens aged 12-18, along with their parents and therapists, to explore what helps them feel better. The goal is to learn more about the therapeutic process and the factors that lead to change, not to test a new drug or treatment.
