Winniey E. Maduro, PhD is a research psychologist and lecturer in the neurobiology of the psychosocial. Her research focuses on neuropsychosocial adaptations to adverse lived experiences and posttraumatic growth across generations. Dr. Maduro lectures internationally on psychosocial trauma and resources, teachers and supervises integrative psychotherapy and research methods at the University of South Wales, and is a specialist examiner for child’s health and well-being at the University of Cambridge.
Winniey E. Maduro brings a fresh perspective to the experience and recovery of trauma with the focus on a holistic approach to trauma treatment that incorporates neuroscience. This provides a well-rounded approach for clinicians and students. Using a conversational style, Maduro invites us to explore the intersection of self and others, better understand our actions, and honor both our bodies (somatic experience) and wisdom that is passed down from our ancestors. I believe this would integrate nicely and bring a fuller perspective to my Understanding Trauma course materials.--Lori Sirs, DSW, LICSW, Saint Martin's University
