Physical and sexual violence, war, accidents & traumatic events are widely varied and can affect anyone and lead to severe mental illness. We now have extensive knowledge of the psychophysical development processes involved in post-traumatic stress disorders. At the same time, various disorder-specific psychotherapy methods have been developed for treating them. In this anthology, renowned authors from the scientific and practical fields present new and proven, evidence-based forms of therapy for trauma sequelae from the viewpoint of different psychotherapeutic methods. Outpatient and residential treatment methods, as well as therapies for adults as well as children and adolescents are taken into account.

This companion offers solutions for coping with anxiety as well as psychological trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder with a special focus on the target group of exposed persons who are active in management, the media or in the public in general and are thus exposed to particularly strong observation and evaluation by their environment. This work explains and supports how this can be dealt with constructively and perhaps even used as a competitive advantage as well as overcome fears and regain personal happiness.

This book is an accessible guide for understanding and treating psychological trauma. Drawing on Dr. Woodcock's extensive experience and the latest research, it offers an approach that integrates systemic therapy and psychoanalytic perspectives through the lens of attachment theory. The book's chapters cover topics such as trauma and pain; traumatic death; how to respond when disaster strikes; social systems that promote attachment versus systems that create trauma; and how to look after ourselves as therapists, family, and friends of trauma survivors. Because no single therapeutic paradigm is sufficient to capture the complexity of trauma, the book brings together a wide set of therapeutic traditions and shows in detail how to apply a variety of treatment approaches, gathered from psychoanalytic, cognitive behavioral, intersubjective, mindfulness, and body psychotherapy traditions, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). The book's vignettes and casestudies provide clear illustrations of the theory outlined and demonstrate the use of interventions in a range of settings. It will appeal to qualified and training practitioners in the clinical and care professions and researchers from across the psychological sciences with an interest in trauma, as well as to a more general readership affected by issues relating to trauma.

Orientierung für den komplexen Prozess der Traumabehandlung - Neuer Ansatz für die Arbeit mit traumatisierten Patienten - Erläutert das Vorgehen durch Fallbeispiele - Schulen übergreifendes Konzept zur gezielten Vorgehensweise in der Therapie Mit ihrem neuartigen Ansatz zeigt die Autorin, dass die Wiederherstellung der durch Traumata zerstörten Selbst- Strukturen nur in der Beziehung möglich ist. Dabei wird klar, wie diese Beziehung durch den Wiederaufbau eines kohärenten Selbstgefühls therapeutisch gestaltet werden kann. In den letzten Jahren wurde eine Reihe von Techniken zur Behandlung von Traumafolgestörungen entwickelt, die in der Praxis häufig ohne zugrundeliegendes Behandlungs- und Verlaufskonzept angewendet werden. Diesem eher technik-orientiertem Vorgehen stellt die Autorin eine andere, beziehungsorientierte Sichtweise entgegen. Der Wiederaufbau eines kohärenten Selbstgefühls, das bei traumatischen Erfahrungen verloren geht, geschieht in Stufen. Welche Formen der Intervention auf welcher Stufe der Verarbeitung den Heilungsprozess fördern, wird theoretisch begründet und anhand von Fallbeispielen anschaulich illustriert. Dieses Buch richtet sich an: - TraumatherapeutInnen - PsychotherapeutInnen - Klinische PsychologInnen - ÄrztInnen - Beratungspersonen in Einrichtungen und Beratungsstellen

Traumatisierungen können zu schwerwiegenden Persönlichkeitsveränderungen führen. Durch die Irritation des biopsychosozialen Systems durch Traumata sind die Symptome stets vielschichtig und die Behandlung der körperlichen Symptomatik, der Dissoziationen und Komplexe geht der Bearbeitung des eigentlichen Traumas häufig voraus. Entscheidend ist dabei die Reaktivierung der Fähigkeit zur Symbolisierung, die oftmals verschüttet ist. Die Analytische Psychologie nach C. G. Jung kann hier einen wertvollen Beitrag zur klinischen Psychotraumatologie leisten - sie bietet ein reichhaltiges Spektrum an Methoden (Traumdeutung, Malen, Sandspiel, Aktive Imagination, Authentic Movement) im Umgang mit traumatisierten Menschen, die im Buch dargestellt werden.

The topic of trauma has been covered in many books, and there are many publications covering the use of SFBT in different settings and with varied client populations. However, the convergence of these topics has, to date, been covered only minutely. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy with Clients Managing Trauma is a comprehensive overview of how Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) can be used as a treatment approach for working with clients managing various forms of trauma. It includes an overview of SFBT's basic tenets, a description of the current research supporting SFBT as an evidence-based practice, and a comparison of how SFBT clinicians may approach trauma cases differently than clinicians from other therapeutic approaches. The bulk of the text uniquely includes chapters contributed by skilled SFBT clinicians, with differing clinical expertise, sharing their knowledge and describing their strength-based, resiliency focus of applying SFBT in different traumatic circumstances. Practitioners and even Master's/doctoral students will find this text invaluable in learning how to best help traumatized clients develop a positive future and move toward healing and health.

Psychoanalytic work with socially traumatised patients is an increasingly popular vocation, but remains extremely demanding and little covered in the literature. In Psychoanalysis and Holocaust Testimony, a range of contributors draw upon their own clinical work, and on research findings from work with seriously disturbed Holocaust survivors, to illuminate how best to conduct clinical work with such patients in order to maximise the chances of a positive outcome, and to reflect transferred trauma for the clinician.Psychoanalysis and Holocaust Testimony closely examines the phenomenology of destruction inherent in the discourse of extreme traumatization, focusing on a particular case study: the recording of video testimonies from a group of extremely traumatized, chronically hospitalized Holocaust survivors in psychiatric institutions in Israel. This case study demonstrates how society reacts to unwanted memories, in media, history, and psychoanalysis – but it also shows how psychotherapists and researchers try to approach the buried memories of the survivors, through being receptive to shattered life narratives. Questions of bearing witness, testimony, the role of denial, and the impact of traumatic narrative on society and subsequent generations are explored. A central thread of this book is the unconscious countertransference resistance to the trauma discourse, which manifests itself in arenas that are widely apart, such as genocide denial, the'disappearance'of the hospitalized Holocaust survivors and of their life stories, mishearing their testimonies and ultimately refusing them the diagnosis of'traumatic psychosis'. Psychoanalysis and Holocaust Testimony provides an essential, multidisciplinary guide to working psychoanalytically with severely traumatised patients. It will appeal to psychoanalysts, psychoanalytic psychotherapists and trauma studies therapists.

Dans le prolongement de Soigner les schémas de pensée (Rusinek), Exposition et désensibilisation (Eraldi-Gackiere, Graziani) L'affirmation de soi par les jeux de rôles (Cariou-Rognant, Chaperon, Duchesne), les auteurs présentent un outil thérapeutique spécifique : le débriefing-defusing. Ils exposent la théorie générale qui y est associée et développent les exemples cliniques.

Synthesizing insights from psychiatry, social psychology, and anthropology, Voices of Trauma: Treating Survivors across Cultures sets out a framework for therapy that is as culturally informed as it is productive. An international panel of 23 therapists offers contextual knowledge on PTSD, coping skills, and other trauma sequelae as they affect survivors of traumatic events. Case studies from Egypt to Chechnya demonstrate various therapeutic approaches (and the Cultural Formation of Diagnosis from the DSM-IV), often integrated with social agencies outside the clinical setting. Authors explore the balance of inter- and intrapersonal factors in reactions to trauma, dispel misconceptions that hinder progress in treatment, and provide profound examples of mutual trust and empathy, even how the wounded may heal the therapist. Highlights of the coverage: Silence as a coping strategy: Sudanese refugee women; Individual and group identity, Western and non-Western healing: a Chinese woman in Hong Kong; Mother/infant psychotherapy with a Kosovar family; Trauma and the bicultural self: New York's Dominican community and the crash of Flight 587; Why war? Why genocide? A social psychology theory of collective violence; Transference, countertransference, and supervisory issues in intercultural treatment. Today's political climate has made refugee mental health a growing public health issue. Voices of Trauma gives clinical and counseling psychologists, psychiatrists, psychotherapists, rescue and social workers, the tools to create healing on a global scale.
