I wish that I had a lot of solid info for you, but I just have a few thoughts...
I really think that the brief psychodynamic therapy would be helpful. It would be even better if you could find a psychologist who has some specialization in women's issues and/or sexual assault. Drugs can help symptoms, but can't change the underlying "stuff."
As for drugs, I had one thought: How is your sleep? If your ptsd is interfering w/ your sleep, perhaps some medication could be helpful there. Sleep deprivation does awful things to depression and anxiety.
Good luck. Let us know how it goes.
Best,
EE
