The sad thing about the articles is how they little they focus on the evidence-based treatments that need to be integrated into these mental health programs. Plenty of research has shown that exposure treatments for PTSD and sleep treatments for insomnia and nightmares will reduce posttraumatic stress symptoms. The articles skim over exposure therapy and say nothing about sleep treatments. Where are the muckrakers of yesteryear who knew how to push things in new directions.
