Psychotraumatology is the scientific study of psychological trauma and its implications for mental health and overall well-being.
Psychotraumatology seeks to investigate the disruptions linked to how we think, how we are feeling, and our behaviors as a result of traumatic experiences, which can take various forms, including natural disasters or personal episodes.
Essentially, it examines the relation between trauma and humanity and uncover novel and effective evidence based therapeutic interventions and resilience-building strategies emerging from trauma-induced stress and maladaptive behaviors.
