The Unseen Impact of Trauma “When There’s No Bruise”: A Christian Psychodynamic Approach to Mental Health following War Trauma

Speaker: Dr. J. Lee Jagers

Long after the physical signs of trauma have healed, the internal world of the soul continues to contain the impact of trauma. Working with people beyond stabilization, as the innovator of the Restoring-Self-Cohesion approach, Dr. Jagers offers a Christian psychodynamic approach helping war trauma survivors restore soul health in order to liberate people into states of post-traumatic-growth to cultivate greater creativity and generatively.
