Suggested · brief protocol
Five-session written trauma protocol. You write about the event in session with a clinician. Shorter than PE or CPT.
VA/DoD suggests WET. Useful when time or dropout risk is high. Not as heavily studied in veterans as PE/CPT/EMDR, but it is in the guideline.
Some VA PTSD teams and trained civilian clinicians. Ask for WET by name.
Still exposure to the memory. Brief does not mean casual.
Evidence reviewed September 2026. Named sources are being added room by room; start with VA/DoD PTSD guideline (2023) for first-line care.
