Cognitive processing therapy (CPT) is a manualized therapy used by clinicians to help people recover from post-traumatic stress disorder and related conditions, incorporating elements of cognitive behavioral therapy. A typical twelve-session run of CPT has proven effective in treating PTSD across populations including combat veterans, sexual assault victims and refugees, though some patients may need up to twenty sessions; it can be provided in individual and group treatment formats, and a 2018 systematic review found it moderately effective compared to other modalities.
