There is no denying the psychological and physical costs of trauma, but suffering a traumatic experience does not necessarily mean you'll develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and have to live with its debilitating long-term symptoms. While the process of recovering from trauma is difficult and painful, survivors also experience post-traumatic growth (PTG). And with the right approach to healing, the same challenges that create PTSD can also set the stage for a psychological rebirth.The Post-Traumatic Growth Workbook expands the focus on post-traumatic stress and its related difficulties to include the significant potential for positive growth in the aftermath of trauma. With this guide, you'll learn more about traumatic experiences and their short- and long-term effects, discover where you are in your own process, explore vulnerability as an important aspect of post-traumatic strength, identify and develop other strengths for coping with-and growing beyond-your trauma, and successfully integrate your experience into your personal story.Navigating the aftereffects of trauma is a difficult journey, but many people report having a new appreciation for life and feeling even more resilient after working through their traumatic event. Using this powerful, PTG-based workbook, you'll find it's possible to come out of your trauma even stronger and wiser.
