Vicarious Trauma: What Prompts Post Traumatic Growth?

lunes, el 8 de febrero de 2016 a las 10:30–12:00 CST
Trinity (30 Classroom)
Session Description

Trauma brings challenges acutely and throughout the process of survival and recovery. Problems are compounded when the estimation of resources needed to successfully manage stressful events are greater than those perceived available to clients and care takers. Frequently, we fail to incorporate prior experiences of trauma and strengths in planning for care.
Doctoral research revealed the concept and clinical pathway of Metahabilitation© recognizing one’s strength and resilience in dealing with adversities associated with trauma. Metahab promotes the biological, psychological and spiritual propensity for growth after trauma. These experiences become opportunities to creatively restructure oneself, finding meaning in life for survivors and care takers.
Post-doctoral research, utilizing a review of literature and multiple interviews, focused on vicarious or secondary traumatization syndrome (STS) clarifying aspects requiring attention. Identification of those affected by STS and factors that contribute to perceived positives of providing trauma care on families, caregivers and clinicians will be discussed.
