Paola is a 22-year-old who presents with complaints of insomnia. She
states that she experienced a sexual assault during an off-campus party
about three months ago, and since then, she has not been able to sleep
through the night. She can recall what she did the day of the assault and
remembers, specifically, what she was wearing to the party, how she got
there, and with whom she arrived. She stated that she had two beers
and flirted with a man she knew casually through a shared acquaintance;
the next thing she remembers was being in a bedroom, alone, with her
shirt off and undergarments torn. She is concerned that she cannot
