Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- It wasn’t one bad thing
- I’ve told the story plenty of times
- I’m in a place with almost no mental-health services, carrying things from war and displacement, and I keep hearing real trauma help needs a specialist I can’t reach
- I’ve been focused on the obvious wound
- When the worst moment comes back it’s just the worst moment, ripped out of everything around it, no before and no after
Practices that may help
- Use NET for sequential and complex trauma
Unlike single-event protocols, NET is specifically designed for people who have experienced multiple traumas.
Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET): Weaving Trauma Into a Coherent Life Story - Work the four channels of traumatic memory: sense, emotion, cognition, meaning
NET explicitly addresses all four channels in which trauma is encoded — not just thought.
Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET): Weaving Trauma Into a Coherent Life Story - Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET): Weaving Trauma Into a Coherent Life Story
Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET), developed by Schauer, Neuner, and Elbert, is a structured short-term treatment for PTSD that works by having the client construct a detailed narrative of their entire life — placing traumatic events within a larger biographical context, rather than isolating them. Multiple randomized trials in refugee and war-affected populations show significant, durable reductions in PTSD symptoms. NET is particularly suited to complex and repeated trauma where individual events cannot easily be isolated. - Understand that NET can be delivered by trained non-clinicians
NET is specifically designed for low-resource settings and has been validated when delivered by trained laypersons — not only psychologists.
Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET): Weaving Trauma Into a Coherent Life Story - Examine stuck points across the five disrupted domains
CPT organizes trauma-disrupted beliefs into five domains — Safety, Trust, Power, Esteem, Intimacy — to ensure none are missed.
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT): Unsticking the Meanings That Maintain PTSD - Narrate the trauma in chronological order within its life context
Tell the story of a traumatic event — before, during, and after — in the context of the surrounding life.
Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET): Weaving Trauma Into a Coherent Life Story - Create a testimony document
NET produces a written testimony of the person’s life — a document that the person and therapist co-author and that the person keeps.
Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET): Weaving Trauma Into a Coherent Life Story - Construct a lifeline
Lay out your entire life chronologically using symbolic markers — stones for traumatic events, flowers for positive ones.
Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET): Weaving Trauma Into a Coherent Life Story - Identifying and Targeting the Trauma Memory
Pinpoint the specific memory, its worst moment (the "touchstone"), and the negative belief it installed.
EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - Know that CPT-C (cognitive only) skips the trauma narrative
A cognitive-only version of CPT omits the written trauma account and may be more tolerable for some people.
