Understanding Trauma: A Guide for Practitioners

Understanding Trauma: A Guide for Practitioners was created for advocates, clinicians, and others working directly with survivors of sexual violence. It is crucial for those working with survivors to understand the nuances of how trauma manifests, how it can impact survivors through the lifespan, and the ways it can intersect with presenting issues and lived experiences. Having a robust understanding of trauma in its many forms can increase our overall capacity to effectively support all survivors.
