N2  - PURPOSE of Review: There are a number of evidence-based therapies for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD; e.g., cognitive processing therapy; prolonged exposure therapy). Many patients with PTSD present to treatment at elevated risk for suicide. In such circumstances, navigating evidence-based treatment for PTSD can be challenging, requiring nuanced approaches to ensure optimal therapeutic outcome while ensuring patient safety. Recent Finding: This manuscript describes the evidence for treating PTSD in the context of elevated risk for suicide. <br><br>METHODS of navigating clinical complexity (e.g., multimorbidity, psychosocial stressors) while maintaining fidelity to evidence-based protocols are discussed. Summary: We conclude by noting gaps in understanding, as well as necessary future research directions to ensure optimal care for this clinical population. © 2021, This is a U.S. government work and not under copyright protection in the U.S.; foreign copyright protection may apply.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
