Teaching helping and caring professionals the knowledge and skills to help trauma survivors
Thomas Rojo Aubrey and Robert Rhoton launched their new book, The Science of Trauma and Recovery: Treatment for Survivors. The aim is to teach helping and caring professionals the knowledge and skills to help trauma survivors achieve recovery and improve health, wellness, and well-being.
It is designed to train professionals whose duties require interaction with individuals struggling to function in life because of trauma-induced symptoms caused by exposure to traumatic stress. Professionals will learn how to apply the principles of trauma-informed care and effectively use a trauma-focused recovery and wellness model, which integrates the application of salutogenesis to assist the survivor on a path toward recovery with optimized levels of functional well-being.
The book invites the readers to explore the historical roots of trauma, scrutinize trauma and stress-related disorders found in the DMS 5-TR, and examine the neurobiological effects of traumatic stress on the brain, mind, and body while uncovering misconceptions about trauma. As we redefine trauma using a trauma-informed perspective, the reader will review evidence-based treatments and discover the elements that help trauma survivors achieve recovery. The book will show you how to further enhance recovery by going beyond traditional trauma-centered therapy with a holistic salutogenic approach to working with trauma survivors.
The reader’s in-depth discovery of the science of trauma and recovery climaxes by preparing them for two national certifications.
The Science of Trauma and Recovery is available for single-copy purchase on Amazon, and campus bookstores and faculty departments can receive bulk discounts by contacting XanEdu's sales team.
