Examining Effects of Written Exposure Therapy As a Preventative Intervention for Trauma-Exposed Populations

This study will assess the effects of written exposure therapy (WET) as a preventative intervention for a broad sample of trauma-exposed individuals presenting to hospitals and clinics. Posttraumatic stress, depression, and anxiety symptoms will be assessed at 3- and 6- months post-trauma, and trauma narratives will be qualitatively analyzed.
