This chapter discusses the role of trauma in both modern psychotherapy and modern culture, relating the emphasis on trauma to the prospects of developing the attributes of sound mental health, including resilience. While trauma is an undeniable experience of many, the culture of trauma in psychotherapy presents trauma not merely as an experience coupled with a particular perception and interpretation that leaves a long-term mark on the person, but also as a normative element in psychodiagnostics and therapy. In this perspective, trauma is increasingly seen not only as an event and its reception by the person, but as a hypothesis, a potential explanation, and a prerequisite for treatment, so that trauma is sought as a potential explanation of difficulties that do not initially present as traumatic. The chapter introduces two methods of responding to trauma, the Flow Model and the Concert Model, and elaborates on the role of organic relationships and micro-communities in addressing trauma.
