Through this framework, survivors can feel less alone, better understand themselves, and learn to have a more fully integrated identity. Her work also presents a model describing the stages of recovery.
Herman’s framework also pioneers the understanding of a form of PTSD, referred to as ?Complex PTSD,” that evolves from long term trauma. It then delves into various etiologies of PTSD and other trauma related disorders. Herman’s framework begins with a history of trauma and its treatment. Survivors and their advocates are provided with a framework that links different traumas such as child abuse, spousal abuse, incest, rape, torture, war, captivity, and the holocaust. Trauma and Recovery, by Judith Herman, M.D., provides trauma victims, their supporters, and clinicians with a greater understanding of the complexities and variations of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
