An IFS Therapy Program for PTSD: A Proof-of-Concept Study
"The PARTS program was conducted in an ethnically and socioeconomically diverse community health care system, offering 16 weeks of online group therapy and individual counseling sessions to address PTSD and its comorbidities."
"IFS therapy posits that PTSD symptomatology is protective and addresses common comorbidities like depression and anxiety, which are often present in individuals with complex PTSD."
"The researchers hypothesized that pairing group therapy for PTSD with individual counseling sessions could benefit both patients and the financially strapped health care systems that serve them."
Community mental health clinics require effective treatments for PTSD, particularly those that are cost-efficient. The IFS therapy-based PARTS program has shown promise in addressing PTSD, complex PTSD, depression, anxiety, and suicide risk. Conducted in a diverse community health care system, the program included 16 weeks of group therapy and individual counseling sessions. The IFS model is non-pathologizing and addresses comorbidities associated with PTSD, aiming to provide resource-efficient interventions for financially constrained health care systems.
