What are the 3 types of trauma? 

Today I talk about developmental trauma. 

This comes from the work of Gabor Mate who is one of the world's leading voices on trauma. 

Last week I talked about shock trauma. 

This week I am talking about developmental trauma. What is it? 

I give some examples of what this type of trauma is and I also quote some of the words of Nick Duffell and Thurstine Basset in Trauma, Abandonment and Privilege, Prof Joy Schaverien from her 2021 paper called Boarding School Syndrome Revisited and Pete Walker's Complex PTSD. 

I talk about how boarding school syndrome is a developmental trauma.

Next week I will talk about attachment trauma. Any questions please do let me know. 

Warm regards, 

Piers
