Trauma – Thinking Beyond PTSD Workshop.

Situations of ongoing conflict and military occupation: perspectives from Palestine.

March 25th 2022 Online workshop recording and slides.

A workshop for all mental health professionals, academics and those engaged in the area of psychological trauma. This includes those working with people experiencing ongoing conflict in many parts of the world and also those working in the field of domestic violence and other forms of ongoing trauma.
Our speakers challenged established Western and medicalised approaches to how we diagnose and individualise the trauma experience which separates it from the lived context. Presenters outlined different perspectives based on their experience of working in Palestine and Northern Ireland, and they discussed different therapeutic approaches.
