As Veteran’s Day approaches, and with the 10-year anniversary of the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School not far behind, UConn Health clinical psychologists Julian Ford and Rocio Chang discuss post-traumatic stress disorder on the November 2022 episode of the UConn Health Pulse podcast.
In addition to describing what the last 10 years have taught us about our reaction to traumatic events, they differentiate between PTSD and stress reactions, and PTSD and complex PTSD; plus they discuss treatment approaches, including one known as TARGET, which they helped develop.
