Horrific Traumata: A Pastoral Response to the Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder


Add your own review!

Overview

""Horrific Traumata"" shares the stories of persons whose meaning, hope and faith were ripped from them by others or traumatic events and who now live with post-traumatic stress disorder. Duncan Sinclair provides insight into the clinical and psychological aspects of PTSD. He aims to present a clear and workable understanding of the nature of PTSD which gives students some understanding of the causes of many behaviours. ""Horrific Traumata"" focuses on the church's readiness and obligation to incorporate traumatised victims into the centre of grace and healing. Sinclair shows how to promote the healing process through a range of parish activities, as well as clinical settings. Guidelines for promoting healing include the key concepts of how to listen compassionately and how to create safe places in which victims may heal during the rebuilding of hope and faith. Scriptures used throughout develop a hopefulness that must be maintained for healing. Students in clinical specialities, pastoral counselling, and seminary students should find the healing words and clinical suggestions in this book to be a valuable resource.
