Imagery Rescripting (IR) ist eine wirksame Therapietechnik für die Bearbeitung von belastenden mentalen Bildern. Es gibt unterschiedliche Varianten und Protokolle für verschiedene Störungsbilder. In diesem Beitrag wird die Durchführung nach dem Protokoll von Arntz und Weertmann [1] am Beispiel der posttraumatischen Belastungsstörung vorgestellt und anhand eines Fallbeispiels demonstriert. Außerdem wird ein Überblick zur aktuellen Datenlage gegeben und mögliche Wirkmechanismen werden diskutiert.
