Anke Ehlers

Anke Ehlers (born 11 January 1957) is a German psychologist and expert in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). She is a Fellow of the major science academies of the UK and Germany.

Ehlers currently works at the University of Oxford as Wellcome Trust Principal Research Fellow and Professor of Experimental Psychopathology.

Along with her husband David M. Clark, she developed a cognitive model for PTSD. Therapies based on this model are recommended for treating PTSD by the American Psychological Association. Ehlers's research has revealed that PTSD is a common issue among emergency medical workers, and that a commonly used therapy for PTSD, psychological debriefing, has little proven therapeutic value.
