2020: Trauma and Resilience: An International Perspective

In 2020, Lynn University Clinical Mental Health Counseling Professor Dr. Jonathan Sperry completed an evaluation of how psychological trauma therapy is applied around the world.

Dr. Sperry's research concluded that mental health professionals in the trauma-care field outside of the United States were "largely underprepared, and not feeling competent." As a result of his sabbatical experience, he is even more committed to advocating for the development of mental health professionals worldwide.
