Katharina Meyerbröker is working as a post-doc at the Department of Clinical Psychology of the University of Amsterdam and is following training to become a cognitive-behavioral therapist. After finishing her PhD project focusing on the efficacy of virtual reality exposure therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in anxiety disorders, and as well on pharmacologic ('cognitive enhancers') and cognitive mechanisms, which play a role during therapy, her research today focuses on the efficacy of treatment for PTSD by means of trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR and on the processes taking place during these treatments.
Current Research Project
Currently two treatment studies concerning the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder by means of trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR are running.
