The presentation will delve into the intricate relationship between betrayal trauma, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and the neurological impacts of PTSD. The aim is to provide a comprehensive understanding of how betrayal trauma contributes to PTSD and how PTSD, in turn, affects the brain.
Understanding Betrayal Trauma
Betrayal trauma occurs when individuals or institutions on whom a person depends for survival significantly violate that person’s trust or well-being. It is particularly poignant because it intertwines feelings of safety and trust with harm. Examples include childhood abuse by caregivers, infidelity in intimate relationships, and institutional betrayal. This type of trauma is unique in its potential to disrupt fundamental human relationships and can have profound psychological consequences.
The presentation will explore how betrayal trauma is a potent precursor to PTSD. Research indicates that trauma involving betrayal by trusted individuals or institutions is more likely to result in PTSD compared to non-betrayal trauma. This section will cover:
- • The psychological mechanisms of betrayal trauma, including shattered trust and disrupted attachment.
- • How betrayal trauma leads to higher incidences of PTSD by exacerbating feelings of vulnerability and helplessness.
- • The role of cognitive dissonance and emotional conflict in the development of PTSD from betrayal trauma.
Given the complex interplay between psychological and neurological factors in PTSD, treatment approaches need to be multifaceted.
- • Counselor
