The Posttraumatic Self (eBook, PDF)

Restoring Meaning and Wholeness to Personality
Redaktion: Wilson, John P.

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

"The Posttraumatic Self will be organized into three sections, the first of which will focus on the effects that trauma can have on the stages of attachment early in life, and the continuing psychological mechanisms that can perpetuate later life-span development. The second section will present a new integrative psychobiological model of trauma therapy aimed at furthering the understanding of the transformative processes brought about by traumatic events and the subsequent stress that follows. The final section of the book will address a variety of issues concerning the restoration of meaning and the re-integration of personality following a traumatic experience. Wilson, Kalsched, and their assembled group of contributors are pre-empting an approaching paradigm shift in our current understanding of the interconnectedness of trauma, PTSD, human development, resiliency and the integrative processes of the self. With the emergence of various integrative approaches to the study of trauma and PTSD, this book has the potential to be a frontrunner in the attempts to combine our understanding of the "inner and outer worlds" of trauma.
