Trauma, writing cure e e-therapy: nuove prospettive di aiuto - The present review examines a new possibility of treatment for extreme traumatized victims, taking into account the studies about trauma elaboration, the writing cure and the online therapies. Theories of PTSD propose that cognitive processing during trauma can account for the characteristic autobiographic memory disorders of these individuals: memories formed from meaningful processing are thought to be fully elaborated into their autobiographical context, instead traumatic memories are characterized by a preponderance of sensory-based information. Writing about traumatic memories can help the meaningful processing and trauma elaboration, and internet increases the therapeutic possibilities for stigmatized trauma victims. Key words: PTSD, Online Therapy, writing treatment.
