08/10/14 Counseling for trauma victims



Moderator: Yang Rui



Guests:



Dr. Judy Kuriansky, Clinical Psychologist, Columbia University Teacher's College



Dr. Rob Blinn, Director, Beijing United's Family Counseling Center



Intro:



A 40-year-old senior official of Beichuan County, one of the worst-hit areas in Sichuan earthquake, hanged himself in a temporary office on October 3, when most Chinese celebrated National holidays.



When Sichuan is working on the reconstruction plan and counties are on the way of recovery, survivors who lost home and relatives are still struggling to find their hope and learn to be strong.



How to understand their fear and worries? What efforts have international psychologists made in Sichuan? What does the Sichuan earthquake help us to learn more about the meaning of life?
