From a clinical psychologist based in Singapore
“Thank you so much for writing your recent article ‘Improved Treatment for Developmental Trauma’ in the Monitor. I read it with complete attention even though I have been reading the topic of developmental trauma for over 50 years. And yet your article was the first to provide a very clear argument not only of the phenomena of developmental trauma but also a clear argument for its inclusion in any forthcoming DSM…Your article, particularly the listing of up-to-date symptoms of developmental trauma, had a profound effect on me emotionally as I believe they will for thousands who read this article. I am so grateful to you Zara for your insight and great skill at writing.”
