NCT ID NCT06138522
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
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.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help therapists better tailor trauma therapy for adolescents by understanding what young patients find helpful.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage qualitative study with only 65 participants. It does not test a treatment, so it cannot prove what works best.
