CPTSD Foundation supports clients’ therapeutic work toward healing and trauma recovery. By participating in our programs, members acknowledge and agree to seek professional medical and mental health care and understand that our programs provide only trauma-informed peer support.

CPTSD Foundation is not a substitute for professional therapy, medical treatment, or crisis care. If you ever feel you are in crisis, please reach out to an online or local crisis resource, call emergency services, or contact your mental health or medical provider immediately. CPTSD Foundation does not provide emergency intervention, medical care, therapy, or crisis counseling.

CPTSD Foundation provides a tertiary means of support—adjunctive care designed to complement, not replace, professional treatment. Our industry-leading ancillary products and services are educational and supportive in nature and are intended to supplement individual therapy. Participation in CPTSD Foundation programs does not establish a therapist-client, doctor-patient, or any other professional healthcare relationship. Each of our members must be engaged in individual therapy and medically stable before participating in our programs.

Nothing on our website, in our programs, or in any associated CPTSD Foundation materials, including but not limited to worksheets, digital content, or live sessions, constitutes or should be construed as medical, psychological, or psychiatric advice. No content provided by CPTSD Foundation is a replacement for or supersedes the direction of your medical or mental health provider. Furthermore, nothing within our content or programs constitutes a diagnosis, treatment plan, medical recommendation, or specific therapeutic intervention.
