In the face of traumas how do we find resiliency and healing? Mayer Bellehsen, PhD, director of the Center for Traumatic Stress, Resilience and Recovery (CTSRR), shares what he calls the five domains of coping. Within that framework, he says connection is the most robust protective factor and stresses the importance of family in the recovery process.
Dr. Bellehsen also discusses the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on health care providers; pulling from past disasters like 9/11 and the AIDS crisis; and his work with veterans living with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety and more.
