✦ Synopsis

P sychodynamic theorists and practitioners have long been interested in the psychological consequences of trauma. For example, as early as 1917, Freud explored the differences between "normal" grieving and "pathological" melancholia in response to loss. Because posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) did not enter the psychiatric nomenclature as a formal diagnosis until 1980, however, dynamic treatments specifically designed to address the constellation of signs and symptoms of this disorder, perforce, emerged only after that time.

case illustration is provided to demonstrate the phases and techniques in this approach.
