Summary/Abstract: The biblical passage quoted above reflects what trauma survivors experience: they view themselves and the world dismally, as if through a glass, a psychological experience in which inner representations of self and world are disrupted, colouring all future perceptions. An understanding of the unique inner, the experience of survivors is essential, as helpers guide the survivor gradually to transform these disrupted representations of self and world, into a new reality that is both adaptive and positive.
