Cognitive Processing Therapy for Childbirth-Related Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether participation in an individual 8-session cognitive processing therapy (CPT) is feasible, acceptable, and leads to clinically meaningful trauma symptom reduction in individuals experiencing childbirth-related trauma. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Is it feasible for women and birthing people to attend and complete an 8-session course of CPT delivered virtually within a specialized women's mental health clinic? 2. Do participants find this modified 8-session CPT protocol acceptable and helpful? 3. Does the treatment lead to clinically meaningful reductions in childbirth-related posttraumatic stress and related symptoms? Participants will be asked to: 1. Attend 8 weekly sessions of individual CPT for childbirth-related trauma 2. Complete a self-report measure of trauma symptoms weekly (i.e., the PCL-5) 3. Complete additional symptom questionnaires at baseline, post-treatment, and at one-month follow-up. 4. Complete a brief qualitative interview one week after treatment to share feedback on their experience
