A method or system by which a clinician can effectively treat the intrusive symptoms of PTSD in fewer than five sessions. The method depends upon a brief elicitation of the trauma memory that makes the memory susceptible to modification. This is followed by the introduction of new or novel information about the remembered event. Because of the labialization induced by the brief exposure, the new information is incorporated into the structure of the memory and the association between the memory and the traumatic feelings are severed. When this is successfully completed, the client is asked to relate the trauma narrative as the clinician assesses it for autonomic responsivity, fluidity and level of detail. If the client shows no discomfort the clinician invites the client to create a new script that eliminates the experience of the trauma, to relive that version in imago, and then to practice the new scenario in the first person in imago.
