abstract="Roughly one third of children subjected to abusive environments grow into healthy and capable adults, demonstrating remarkable resiliency, despite risks for developing maladaptive self-structures and destructive behaviors (Werner, &quot;American Journal of Orthopsychiatry&quot; 59:72-81 1989; Kendall-Tackett &quot;et al.&quot;, &quot;Psychological Bulletin&quot; 113:164-180 1993). This paper suggests that, for adults with developmental arrests due to childhood traumas, it may be beneficial to approach enhancing resilience through interventions meant to foster resiliency factors in adolescents and children, tailored appropriately for an adult. Connections to current and effective interventions are reviewed as well as an invitation to the international community for additional perspectives.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
