Psychological Growth After Trauma

“This book is an eye-opener for anyone who works with trauma. Understanding, practice, and investigation are all integrated in a brilliant and needed complement to the existing literature.” Alfried Längle, MD, PhD, professor of psychotherapy at the Sigmund Freud University, Vienna, and the University of Klagenfurt, Austria “The field of trauma studies often fails to consider relational and contextual aspects of trauma. Psychological Growth After Trauma seeks to correct that, exploring the experience of a variety of traumas, many of which frequently go under the radar. In all these contributions, the phenomenology of traumatic experience is foregrounded and should be a significant resource for therapists trying to avoid adhering too rigidly to the fashionable formulations du jour.” Martin Milton, professor of counselling psychology and existential psychotherapist
