Detailed Description:
One treatment session is given with the psychological treatment method Lifespan Integration (LI). The main outcome is change on Impact of Event Scale (IES) before and after the treatment. The change is analyzed and compared with the change on Impact of Event Scale (IES) among the people on the waiting list arm. Self-rating questionnaires are being used 5+/-3 days before treatment, 20 +/-3 days after treatment, and 6 months +/- 6 weeks after the first measurement.

Other: Lifespan Integration
A protocol based psychological treatment method

This arm gets no treatment, and differences on Impact of Event Scale from the first measurement at inclusion at the second measurement 20 +/- 3 days after, without treatment, is analyzed and compared with the results from the treatment Group.
