Cognitive processing therapy (CPT) is a type of cognitive behavioral therapy that has been found effective in reducing the symptoms of those who have experienced trauma due to rape, natural disasters, combat, and child abuse, which makes it a potential treatment for survivors of incest. The perceptions of female incest survivors who had completed CPT as part of group therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were not known. The purpose of this study was to address the effectiveness of cognitive processing group therapy for women who have survived incest and have also been diagnosed with PTSD as a result. The theoretical framework consisted of Bandura's social learning theory. As part of this basic qualitative study, interviews were conducted with nine female incest survivors who had been diagnosed as having PTSD and who had completed CPT as part of PTSD group therapy. Results indicated that group therapy was beneficial in increasing social skills and the feeling of belongingness and in decreasing the negative symptoms associated with PTSD. The study addresses a gap in research on treatment modalities and interventions for those who have survived incest. It may lead to positive social change by increasing survivors' understanding of the efficacy of a new therapeutic alternative to help learn positive social skills and regain a sense of autonomy. The use of CPT in PTSD group therapy may empower women survivors of incest by offering the opportunity to forge social networks with trusted others. This may have a beneficial impact on the lives women who have endured trauma and feel a sense of isolation that few others understand.
