Race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, migration status, religion and
many other cultural factors play an important role in recovery from
a traumatic event. Most conventional attempts to help people
recover from trauma do not anticipate or address these factors.
Here, a psychologist describes how to recognize the cultural issues
that need to be considered for healing. The author offers vignettes
illustrating these issues, as well as activities for traumatized
people to regain their sense of self-esteem, safety, strength and
calm. Each chapter offers activities to aid recovery - from writing
a journal, movement, music and spirituality to activism and social
support.
