New York State Society for Clinical Social Work Nassau Chapter with The Advanced Clinical Education Foundation of the NYSSCSW Presents:

THE TRAUMAS AND TYPES OF POST TRAUMA STRESS ENDURED BY THREE ICONIC AMERICAN AUTHORS: J.D. Salinger (Catcher In The Rye); Truman Capote (In Cold Blood); Maya Angelou (Why The Caged Bird Sings).

Program Description

In this presentation Roger Keizerstein will address a wide spectrum of traumas through the stories of three renowned authors. He will examine J.D. Salinger’s combat experience during the invasion of Normandy and its aftermath. He will discuss and illuminate the types of trauma and post-traumatic stress unique to the combat veteran, including accumulated stress, moral wound, survivor’s guilt, blast-related traumatic brain injury and specific symptoms of post-traumatic stress due to poor re-assimilation from combat zone to civilian life.

Mr. Keizerstein will then visit and explore Truman Capote’s experience interviewing two death row prisoners charged with the murder of an entire farm family in Holcomb, Kansas. He will shed light on the various types of accumulated stress, lower case “t” traumas and symptoms of post-traumatic stress such as, accumulated Stress— A Writer’s moral conflict, over-exposure to traumatized individuals, addiction to emotional intensity, collapse of pre-traumatized personality, emotional dysregulation and regression.

Through the tragic sexual assault of Maya Angelou as an eight -year-old child, Roger will explain the types of post-traumatic emotional retreat and treatment interventions – both intentional and inadvertent. He will specifically explore titration and will further explain titration trauma treatment, ways to understand and work with dissociation and means of facilitating healing and resilience.
