This study will examine MDMA-assisted psychotherapy in individuals aged 18 years or older diagnosed with PTSD, with PTSD symptoms not improving after trying at least one treatment. This objective of this study is to determine whether three eight-hour long sessions of MDMA-assisted psychotherapy, scheduled three to five weeks apart, can be safely administered to participants with PTSD, and whether combining a fully therapeutic dose of MDMA with psychotherapy, when compared with a low ("active placebo") dose of MDMA, will reduce PTSD symptoms. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive the full dose of MDMA (125 mg) or assigned to receive a low or "active placebo" dose of MDMA (25 mg) during each of three experimental sessions.

This study will evaluate naltrexone and cognitive-behavioral therapy treatments for alcohol dependence and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Subjects will be randomly assigned a 6-month treatment of either: 1) naltrexone alone, 2) naltrexone with PTSD psychosocial therapy, 3) a placebo with PTSD psychosocial therapy, or 4) placebo alone. An enhanced medication management intervention will accompany all treatment conditions. Follow-up assessments will be completed at 9 and 12 months after treatment.

This pilot randomized clinical trial will randomize 60 participants 1:1 to either enhanced usual care or to adapted CETA, a counseling intervention for HIV care engagement plus depression, anxiety, PTSD, and/or substance use.

Psychological distress is commonly experienced by survivors of an intensive care admission, including patients treated during previous pandemics. Whilst data emerges about the short-term impact of COVID-19 on patients and healthcare systems, the long term impact remains unclear. The purpose of this trainee-led, multi-centre longitudinal study is to assess the short- and long-term psychological impact on patients who have survived an admission to intensive care due to COVID-19, and identify possible predictors of anxiety, depression and trauma symptoms in this patient group.

This is a randomized, controlled trial with 50 veterans diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and comorbid alcohol dependence. Veterans will be randomized to receive either zonisamide (400 mg) or placebo for 12 weeks in a double blind fashion. Randomization will be done using 3:1 ratio and will be performed by our research pharmacy using a random assignment in blocks of 4- 3 will be assigned to active medication and 1 to placebo. Medication will be titrated over a 6 week titration phase followed by a 6 week treatment phase. All veterans will receive E-CPT-C therapy for the 12 weeks of treatment; E-CPT-C will be provided by trained and qualified clinicians with extensive experience providing E-CPT-C. Veterans will be recruited primarily through advertisement, but also through the clinical facilities at the VA and from other collaborators.

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) can result from having experienced or witnessed a traumatic event. Patients with PTSD symptoms can sometimes experience symptom relief after treatment with antidepressants; however, few patients experience complete symptom relief. There is a need to develop new treatments for PTSD. This study will evaluate if 12 weeks of using Vortioxetine relieves PTSD symptoms. Vortioxetine has been approved for the treatment of depression; however, Vortioxetine has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for the treatment of PTSD.
