Abstract
Objectives: Trauma-related conditions, such as post-traumatic stress disorder, are associated with high rates of impairment and distress. Evidence-based interventions for many trauma-related conditions exert robust effects on their primary outcomes. However, logistical, financial, geographic and stigma-related barriers to accessing these interventions exist.
Methods: Innovations that overcome barriers to access and engagement and increase the scalability of interventions for trauma-related conditions are sorely needed.
Results and conclusions: Here, we explore the following two potential avenues towards meeting this need: changes to the delivery model, including embedding interventions in settings which are already accessed by trauma-exposed individuals (e.g. schools, social care systems) and harnessing advancements in technology to provide truly accessible trauma-focussed interventions.
