Trauma and Post Traumatic Growth

This workshop will delve in the relatively new concept of post-traumatic growth. The idea of Post Traumatic Growth (PTG) is that survivors of traumatic events cannot only heal from their trauma, but may grow into a stronger, more driven, and more resilient person because of their trauma.

PTG can be understood as positive change resulting from an individual’s struggle with a major life crisis or traumatic event. PTG is conceptualised to correspond with five stages within: Personal Strength; Life Appreciation; Relating to Others with Greater Intimacy and Compassion; New Possibilities; Spiritual Changes. During this workshop we will examine how individuals who have been affected by trauma can go on to experience growth and wisdom.

This workshop will take place in WAVE's Nevara centre in Belfast on Tuesday 23rd June, and will run from 10.00am - 4.00pm.
