Summary |
"We must understand that in the trauma survivor, self injury is functional. It always performs some deep, underlying function. Most generally, it's an attempt to ward off worse harm." David Calof. A client's self mutilating behavior can be extremely challenging for the therapist. This video series discusses the range of traumatic causes of self mutilation, and the forms that it takes, as well as interventions that can provide more adaptive responses. Child abuse survivors describe their experiences of self mutilation, and their steps toward recovery. |
