About The Book

<p><em>Collective Trauma, Collective Healing</em> is a guide for mental health professionals working in response to large-scale political violence or natural disaster. It provides a framework that practitioners can use to develop their own community-based, collective approach to treating trauma and providing clinical services that are both culturally and contextually appropriate. The classic edition includes a new preface from the author reflecting on changes to the field and the world since the book’s initial publication.</p><p>The book draws on experience working with survivors, their families, and communities in the Holocaust, post-war Kosovo, the Liberian civil wars, and post-9/11 Lower Manhattan. It tracks the development of community programs and projects based on a family and community resilience approach, including those that enhance the collective capacities for narration and public conversation.</p><p>Clinicians and community practitioners will come away from <i>Collective Trauma, Collective Healing</i> with a solid understanding of new roles they may play in disasters—roles that encourage them to recognize and enhance the resilience and coping skills in families, organizations, and the community at large.</p> <p>Introduction: Collective Trauma, Resilience, and Recovery <strong>Part One: Collective Trauma and Recovery: Global Perspectives</strong> 1.
