Understanding Trauma and its effects

 

The impact of trauma upon individuals has been researched all over the world.  There is research that suggests this impact can create a biological change in development of the brain and body, which can start to help us understand how the effects of trauma can be significant and change the way in which our brains work and respond to certain situations.

The research and literature on this topic is vast. Here, we have tried to include some links to websites and research for you that may help you to begin to start your journey on understanding the impact of trauma.
