Post Traumatic Growth Therapy
Post Traumatic Growth Therapy is a powerful and inspiring concept when treating trauma and PTSD. It has firstly introduced by psychologists Richard G. Tedeschi and Lawrence G. Calhoun in the 1990s.
The concept of Post Traumatic Growth Therapy embodies the resilience of the human spirit and the potential for the positive changes to occur in individuals after experiencing a traumatic event.
Transform Your Life With Post Traumatic Growth Therapy
Post-Traumatic Growth Therapy is a transformative therapeutic approach that supports individuals in not only recovering from trauma but also fostering meaningful personal development and psychological resilience.
Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, this process encourages individuals to find strength, purpose, develop deeper appreciation and meanings in life, spiritual growth, renewed sense of self and relationships with others, and explore new possibilities in the aftermath of adversity.
It helps those that have experienced trauma, not only recover from their negative experiences, but also increase their ability to:
​
-
Better cope with challenges.
