Sobre este audiolivro

Approximately 50 percent of the population will experience a traumatic event at some point. While reactions to trauma can vary widely, and not everyone will develop Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder(PTSD), trauma can change the brain in some predictable ways. With increased awareness, you can seek treatment to address your symptoms and learn skills that could rewire your brain for recovery. Knowing what’s going on can be immensely helpful because it may help you realize that you’re not crazy, irreversibly damaged, or the wrong person. Instead, you can think of a traumatized brain as one that functions differently due to traumatic events. And just as your brain changes in response to your past experiences with the world, it can also change in response to your future experiences. In other words, the brain is “plastic,” and you can change it.
Depth or imaginal psychotherapy is highly effective in treating and assessing adult survivors of childhood abuse. Specifically, interventions that use dreams, symbols, metaphor, and expressive art techniques are deemed especially valuable as they address dissociatively based changes (affect regulation, sense of self, and diminished imagination).
Specifically, this book proposes that prominent symptoms of Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (which will be further referred to as PTSD), such as changes in affect regulation, sense of self, and use of imagination, are better neurologically matched to therapeutic interventions that foster right-brain processes.
By assessing specific depth psychological aspects of the individual’s shattered sense of self, a more focused and efficient treatment plan can be created sooner in the course of therapy.
