Examine the resiliency capacities of traumatized individuals and
communities Sources and Expressions of Resiliency in Trauma
Survivors provides a framework for understanding how-and
why-resiliency is essential to the challenges of post-traumatic
recovery. This unique book examines how this framework applies to
trauma survivors, treated and untreated, from culturally,

qualitative and quantitative research findings, clinical case
reviews, and narrative studies to consider the implications for
clinical practice, community intervention, and social change in the
wake of violence. Sources and Expressions of Resiliency in Trauma
Survivors provides practicing clinicians with new insights into the
need for a full continuum of resources for traumatized groups,
including: crisis response, individual psychotherapy and group
treatment, victim advocacy, community intervention and social
change. The book also helps clinicians and researchers become more
familiar with theory-driven tools for use in psychological
assessment, case formulation, treatment planning and outcome
research, as well as for assessing resiliency in diverse groups of
treated and untreated trauma survivors, identifying sources of risk
and expression of resiliency; and examining how trauma survivors
struggle to draw meaning from their experiences. Topics examined in

This book expands on APA’s 2017 Multicultural Guidelines by
exploring additional research and providing students and
professionals with practical applications for clinical practice,
teaching and training, research, and consultation. As codevelopers
of the guidelines, the authors provide their unique expertise in
multicultural psychology, explaining how to develop cultural
responsiveness and humility and become attuned to the diversity of
human needs and experiences. They also describe how to create
constructive dialogues about social identity and build fruitful
bidirectional relationships with clients, students, and
organizations, among others. Â This book takes an
intersectional and ecological approach that considers a variety of
cultural factors at multiple levels, ranging from small to large
groups, to societal and cultural forces, and to historical changes.
Within this layered ecological model, each of the ten guidelines is
explored in depth in its own chapter, including illustrative case
examples and discussion questions. The book concludes with a
comprehensive review that ties the ten multicultural guidelines
together and highlights key takeaways, as well as providing future
considerations for how multicultural psychology will evolve.
For racial minority immigrants in the United States, trauma can
have both historical and ongoing sources. Today's immigrants face a
dangerous mix of rising nationalism and xenophobia, alarming rates
of displacement within and across nations, war, trafficking,
terrorism, and deportation. Multiple traumas stem from these
experiences and can be exacerbated by interpersonal violence and
other forms of marginalization within communities. This book
examines the lasting impact of trauma for racial minority
immigrants and subsequent generations. Each chapter explores both
the stress and resilience of immigrant groups in the United States,
as well as clinical or community-based efforts to address the
multiple traumas that affect immigrants and their children. While
considering the socioecological contexts of immigrants, the
chapters reflect a diversity of theoretical perspectives needed to
expand existing treatments for trauma, such as multicultural,
feminist, womanist, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and
humanistic theories. In the nuanced pages of this book, you will
deepen your understanding of the immigrant experience and develop
professional skills to help heal traumatic stress faced by racial
minority immigrants.
While psychoanalytic scholars often address specific aspects of
diversity such as gender, race, immigration, religion, sexual
orientation, and social class, the literature lacks a set of core
principles to inform and support culturally competent practice.
This approachable volume responds to that pressing need. Drawing on
the contributions of psychoanalytic scholars as well as
multicultural and feminist psychologists, Pratyusha Tummala-Narra
presents a theoretical framework that reflects the realities of
clients' lives and addresses the complex sociocultural issues that
influence their psychological health.
