Abstract

There has been substantial growth in the development of effective treatments for PTSD and while they work well, there is still room for improvement. Loss of PTSD diagnosis immediately following treatment ranges from 44 to 66% and these rates refer to cognitive therapies and cognitive-behavioral therapies with exposure, treatments that have been identified as the most effective PTSD psychotherapies to date. Improving treatment response rates for PTSD is critical in order to reduce the burden of mental health problems across the globe. This chapter describes several strategies to enhance patient outcomes. These include: matching patients to treatments that optimize outcomes for them, attention to common factors such as the therapeutic alliance, flexible delivery of interventions and treatment components according to patient need, and consideration of a wider range of outcomes, particularly functional impairment.
