Karie A. Kermath

Karie A. Kermath is the co-author of Behavioral Activation for PTSD: A Workbook for Men. After a family trauma, she discovered the healing power of sharing her experiences with the world and helping others stare down their own symptoms of PTSD. She understands the challenges that come from living with trauma symptoms and knows firsthand, through her own successful completion of Prolonged Exposure Therapy, that recovery is within reach. She wants others who are struggling with symptoms to know that PTSD doesn't have to be a life sentence.

In collaboration with her co-author, Dr. Lisa Campbell, she is a speaker and advocate for PTSD awareness, education, and understanding. Please visit their website FriendsFightBack.com for more information and resources. Karie blogs about her personal experience with PTSD at thevermilionroad.com.
