Trauma and post-traumatic growth

Course content

We have all come to understand that an existential threat can trigger trauma. Indeed, when discussing the psychological repercussions of events like war, most psychotherapists typically think of trauma. However, is it possible that there is an alternative perspective beyond trauma or even post-traumatic growth? Could it be that our response to an existential threat is more intricately linked to physis, our values, and the meaning we attribute to life?

In this workshop, we will cover information on trauma and post-traumatic growth, explore fresh viewpoints regarding how trauma affects individuals' mental well-being and internal framework, and think together about what happens beyond trauma. We will also touch on the topic of privilege, power and stigmatisation of trauma.
