简要总结
In this study, researchers are examining the best sequence of interventions for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and tinnitus. Participants will either receive psychotherapy for PTSD first (Cognitive Processing Therapy; CPT), followed by treatment for tinnitus (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Tinnitus; CBT-t); or vice-versa. We also aim to identify changes in brain functioning after receiving therapy.
详细描述
After consenting to this study, study participants will be asked to speak with a study staff member about stressful or traumatic experiences, complete hearing assessments and questionnaires about exposure to traumatic events, PTSD symptoms, mental and physical health problems, such as depression and substance use, head injuries, and tinnitus. Participants who are able and willing may be asked to provide functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans before and after treatment. Participants will receive treatment for tinnitus and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in one of two ways: Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) first and then Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Tinnitus (CBT-t) OR CBT-t first, followed by CPT.
