One of the challenges facing practitioners who treat people from areas of the world that are characterized by ongoing political violence is the diagnosis of PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), for there is no “P” to the trauma. I was very fortunate to be able to attend a conference devoted to this challenge. Hosted by Kingston University in London, the conference was entitled:
RETHINKING TRAUMA AND RESILIENCE IN THE CONTEXT OF POLITICAL VIOLENCE:
NEW DIRECTIONS IN RESEARCH AND PRACTICE
Hopefully we shall be able to publish the proceedings. In that event, I’ll let you know where to find them
