Horrific Traumata shares the stories of persons whose meaning, hope, and faith were ripped from them by others or by traumatic events and now live with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Traumatized Vietnam veterans are joined by others who have also experienced horrific traumata and need help to rebuild their lives because of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder(PTSD)--victims and survivors of incest and rape, hostage situations, and other events outside the range of ordinary human suffering. Duncan Sinclair provides direct insight into the clinical and psychological aspects of PTSD. He presents a clear and workable understanding of the nature of PTSD which gives clergy and other involved persons direct insight into the causes of many behaviors. Horrific Traumata focuses on the church's readiness and obligation to incorporate traumatized victims into the center of grace and healing. Clergy and counselors of all specialities now have a means of seeing behind the masks of hurt and isolation to the the long-standing and disabling trauma. Sinclair shows how to promote the healing process through a range of parish activities as well as in clinical settings.
