A randomized controlled trial assists individuals with complex trauma and dissociation in Finding Solid Ground
This randomized controlled trial demonstrates that adding FSG to psychotherapy of individuals with TRD results in improvements in emotion regulation, PTSD symptoms, self-compassion, and adaptive functioning. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2025 APA, all rights reserved)
“They thought I was just making it up”: Dissociative individuals’ understandings of their dissociation, perceptions of their clinicians’ conceptualizations of dissociation, and discrepancies between t…

Client-clinician discrepancies should be addressed, as failure to do so could lead to misunderstandings and ruptures in the therapeutic relationship. (PsycInfo Datab…
Exploring false negatives in self-reported trauma exposure status
Findings raise questions regarding the efficiency and accuracy of the worst event method to determine trauma exposure status via self-report. Researchers should consider alternative methods for assessing trauma exposure rather than relying on the worst event scoring method. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)

The present study examined the emotional consequences of participating in research asking questions about trauma and NSSI. A total of 544 participants completed self-report questionnaires assessing trauma exposure, NSSI, and…
