CPT Themes Exploration
Cognitive Processing Therapy is a modality used to treat individuals with PTSD (read more here). CPT is typically very structured, with specific modules & worksheets that should only be followed under the care of a licensed counselor. However, the 5 themes incorporated within CPT (safety, trust, power & control, esteem, and intimacy)can be beneficial to explore as a way to understand one‘s experiences & worldview.
This 2-page handout provides a list of questions aligned with the 5 themes of CPT. These questions can guide your exploration, with or without a therapist. The questions can be explored within any relationship--your relationship with self, with specific individuals, with general groups of people (acquaintances, coworkers, etc.) with your body, with the world, with an institution or system. Use these as a loose framework to deepen your understanding of your relationships & the beliefs you hold about relationships.
