| Intergenerational Transmission of Trauma to the Second Generation |
|
| "I would like to enable the second generation to understand the transmission of trauma from Holocaust survivors to themselves, so that they can make meaning of the impact of their parents' trauma within their own lives." |
|
| Sylvie K. Schapira is a psychotherapist and trainer. Author of a practical guide to training in counselling and psychotherapy. She conducted a research for an M.Sc into whether psychotherapists needed specific training to work with the second generation of Holocaust survivors.
