| Description: |
Explains how cultural factors affect our perception of, and recovery from, trauma triggered by events including sexual assault, domestic violence, racial and homophobic hate crimes and discrimination. Each chapter offers activities to aid recovery--from journaling, movement, music and spirituality to activism and social support. |
| Synopsis: |
Race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, migration status, religion and many other cultural factors play an important role in recovery from a traumatic event. However, most conventional attempts to help people recover from trauma do not anticipate or address these factors. Here, a psychologist describes how to recognize the cultural issues that need to be considered for healing. She offers vignettes illustrating these issues, as well as activities for traumatized people to regain their sense of self-esteem, safety, strength and calm. |
