Abstract
A large proportion of patients who present for treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) experience comorbid panic attacks, yet it is unclear to what extent currently available PTSD treatment programs address this problem. Here we describe a newly developed treatment, multiple-channel exposure therapy (M-CET), for comorbid PTSD and panic attacks. The treatment utilizes elements of cognitive processing therapy treatment for PTSD and elements of panic control treatment to target physiological, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms. Preliminary results suggest that M-CET may provide a promising treatment program for a subset of patients with PTSD who experience panic attacks. In addition, guidelines for conducting M-CET with clients who have been exposed to diverse traumatic events are provided.
