E-book Re-Authoring Life Narratives After Trauma : A Holistic Narrative Model of Care
Not only does the book concur with earlier authors on the impact of trauma on the survivor’s spiritual or faith dimension, but life narratives in the Trauma Healing Research Project also show that regardless of religious affiliation the research participants turned to spiritual resources for answers and deeper social redress in their traumatic situations. While much research has been carried out in the biopsychosocial approach to understanding and treating trauma, the approach falls short of understanding moral and spiritual injuries that people who are exposed to trauma may sustain. Therefore, the book shows that the biopsychosocial approach is limited in scope for us to reach a holistic model of assessing and treating individuals and communities that are exposed to trauma. This book argues for a spiritual narrative model of care, which must integrate an understanding of and respect for the many forms of religion and spirituality that people or clients who are exposed to trauma might have. The holistic narrative model will not only bring spiritual perspective in the psychotherapeutic dialogue but also assist in dealing with the different demands in pastoral ministry as related to the clinical and post-traumatic setting.
