En savoir plus sur le livre

In this book, Dr Zepinic provides a theoretical and practical concept of the complex trauma impact upon personality (the self). This book will contribute for better diagnostic and clinical therapy for those who have been victims of horrible traumatic experience (war, rape, terrorism, violence, etc.) which often affect the victim’s personality for the entire life.The book has two major goals: (1) to provide comprehensive knowledge about the trauma impact upon the victim’s self, and (2) to initiate better understanding of the therapeutic needs for one’s traumatised self, as complex traumatic experience alters the trauma survivor’s capacity to cope with everyday living and destruct the identity of the self. Traumatic events overwhelm the ordinary human adaptations to life and generally involve threats to life or bodily integrity, leading to victim’s ‘self-at-worst’.
