3/3 This study suggests that therapists should inform people that symptoms may increase but evidence suggests this is not linked to outcomes, and persist with memory work (with informed consent) if this happens, using a collaboratively agreed plan to support coping with symptoms.

2/3 Therapists often have concerns about the impact of trauma therapies for people with complex mental health problems. This may mean people are not offered evidence-based therapies, or memory work is discontinued prematurely if the person experiences difficulties.

1/3 NEW PAPER led by the brilliant Simone Burger. The first study to demonstrate that exacerbations in post-traumatic stress symptoms are common (46.5%) during trauma therapies for psychosis but unrelated to outcome or dropout! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…

Psychosis is often accompanied by cognitive difficulties with memory and attention.
Lots of practical tips from Dr Sarah Swan on how to adapt therapy sessions for people with cognitive difficulties #TherapistTwitter #CBT @STARtrial_ @KingsIoPPN @MaudsleyNHS #psychosis

Trauma talking therapy can be helpful for people with problems like voices, visions, or worries about being unsafe.

ALT Do’s Reach out to people who might be lonely. Let them know you understand Christmas can be difficult and you're there for them.
