Elizabeth Smart's book taught me six important lessons about resilience in the face of trauma, including:
1. How PTSD can be prevented through healthy support networks
2 Common crises after a traumatic event
3. Skills that can help heal trauma, PTSD, and improve mental health
4. Resources that we can all access to be more resilient in the face of difficult experiences.
Elizabeth Smart has a lot to teach us about resilience in the face of trauma. As a 14-year-old girl she was kidnapped from her home and held hostage by a man who pretended to be a prophet.
She experienced horrible abuse and trauma but did not develop PTSD. I learned a lot from reading her story, and I was reminded of the resilient nature of the human spirit from Elizabeth Smart's example.

About Me:
I’m Emma McAdam. I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and I have worked in various settings of change and growth since 2004. My experience includes juvenile corrections, adventure therapy programs, wilderness therapy programs, an eating disorder treatment center, a residential treatment center, and I currently work in an outpatient therapy clinic.  

In therapy I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Systems Theory, positive psychology, and a bio-psycho-social approach to treating mental illness and other challenges we all face in life. The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life's direction.
And deeper than all of that, the Gospel of Jesus Christ orients my personal worldview and sense of security, peace, hope, and love https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/c...
