Explanation:

Charlie witnessed a crime (trauma). Symptoms like nightmares, distancing from others, and guilt are typical of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Obsessive - compulsive disorder (OCD) involves repetitive thoughts/ behaviors. Specialized phobic disorders are about excessive fear of specific things. Alternative treatments are a category of treatment methods, not a disorder. So, PTSD (A) is the correct diagnosis.

Answer:

A. posttraumatic stress disorder
