简要总结
This randomized controlled trial investigates the comparative effectiveness of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in fostering post-traumatic growth among patients diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Participants will be randomized to receive either EMDR therapy or standard SSRI pharmacotherapy. The primary objective is to evaluate the extent of psychological growth and recovery achieved through each intervention, aiming to guide future therapeutic strategies for PTSD.
