Regardless of the population one serves, helping professionals will most likely come into contact with someone who suffers from trauma. Many times, the presenting problem may be substance abuse, an eating disorder, depression or anxiety, but trauma is at the root of the disturbance. In "Trauma, PTSD, and Trauma-Informed Care", Renee Bradford Garcia, LCSW, offers multiple definitions of trauma, including the subjective nature of trauma, complex trauma, historical trauma, and secondary trauma. She reviews PTSD, the four symptom clusters associated with it, as well as treatment options. Finally, she discusses Trauma-Informed Care and the values associated with it. In a role-play demonstration, Renee works with a client who has come in for an initial session, six weeks after one of her co-workers walked into her workplace, and open fired with an automatic machine gun, killing three people and seriously injuring others. Watch as Renee assess the client for PTSD and uses a Trauma-Informed approach to treatment, including the values of safety, trustworthiness, choice and control, collaboration, and empowerment.
