dc.description.abstractA trauma can be defined as an event which attacks the defences and psychological well-being of the person (Mitchell & Everly 1997). Trauma has the capacity to significantly disrupt a trauma victim 's life and many authors describe the impact that a traumatic event can have on an individual. Trauma counselling is often required to assist the victim to return to their premorbid levels of functioning. This study provides the reader with relevant literature into the subjects of trauma and trauma counselling. There were two research questions which formed the basis of the study and these research questions focussed on how the respondents experienced the trauma counselling they had received and how they felt that the counselling assisted them with achieving post-traumatic growth.en_ZA
