Forty Years at the PTSD Frontier with Barbara O. Rothbaum, PhD Insomnia, Sleep, and the Use of Sedative-Hypnotic Drugs: Practical Notes Rethinking Postpartum Depression: Biology, Biomarkers, and New Treatments with Jennifer L. Payne, MD

From the Editors

New Series The JCP Podcast PTSD treatment may be less about adding meds than helping patients stop avoiding what happened—Dr. Rothbaum calls SSRIs “weak coffee” and says psychotherapy still leads. She also explains why a 2-week intensive outpatient model can top 90% retention, and where MDMA, ketamine, and virtual reality might fit next.
