no, because of the word forced.
And possibly no also if the psychologist and the patient did not "fit" well.

I personally believe that the PTSD begins during the adrenolin rush of the trauma, when the brain and body are just trying to survive. Adrenolin or some other brain chemical overload.

Counseling even one hour after that trauma can reduce PTSD, but not eliminate it or prevent it.
