CONFERENCE THEME

Trauma, recovery and growth:
Advances in research and practice

While trauma may have a severe negative impact on an individual’s life, trajectories that promote recovery and growth are possible. The conference will explore research and clinical advancements in the field of traumatic stress studies which continue to transform our understanding of treatment and recovery for those affected by trauma and its aftermath. Research into the science of posttraumatic growth further demonstrates that trauma can bring a deeper response to personal transformation.

The conference will include a new dedicated clinical skills stream along with plenary sessions, papers, and panel discussions.
