Materials & Methods: This single-case experimental study used A-B plan with different subjects that were conducted during 9 sessions on three patients with one month follow-up. The data were analyzed with visuals inspection, improvement percentage and reliable change index (RCI) strategies. Instruments used in this research included the Structured Clinical Interview for Axis I disorders and the impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R). Results: The findings showed that the holographic reprocessing therapy reduced the severity of arousal and intrusion symptoms in veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder and follow-up period of therapy indicating the consistency of therapy. Conclusion: This therapy with providing reprocessing facilitates a change in clients’ perceptions of a traumatic event, themselves, and others. It is through this perceptual shift they are able to gain new insight.
