Details of the Special Issue:
For the treatment of trauma related disorders, most evidence that is currently available supports the use of trauma-focused psychotherapy. However, millions of people worldwide seek out other types of help.

But what is the evidence for the efficacy and effectiveness of these treatments? What are the mechanisms of action?
