Trauma focused therapy

Description

For this module, you read about trauma focused therapy in your Wheeler text. Given the recent pandemic and its’ sequelae, I suspect that we might be hearing and learning more about trauma informed care in this context.

For this discussion board assignment, search the literature to find one article that concerns psychotherapy (or a psychosocial intervention) and trauma. Although we have psychotherapies that are trauma-specific, such as CPT (Cognitive Processing Therapy) and EMDR, you can choose any type of psychosocial intervention that interests you (such as yoga and PTSD, for example).

Consider all of the different theoretical orientations we have studied to date, or even ones we didn’t get a chance to learn about yet in Corey, such as Post-Modern, Feminism, and Transactional Analysis, etc.)- you may find some interesting studies.

There is a lot of information on PubMed, but you may consider doing a search within our virtual library under Psychology (as opposed to Nursing & Medicine). The trauma does not have to be in the context of COVID and you can choose any type of article you like provided that it is scholarly.

Post a PDF of the article and compose a brief summary that must at least include the purpose of the article, the population studied, the type of treatment used, results, the author’s conclusion, and a reflection as to how this information may inform your practice. 

Include a reference in APA format.
