An Israeli psychologist reports on his huggy-dog intervention.
We turn on the news and hear about war and devastation every day and wonder, what about all the children in these regions who are affected by wartime trauma? Who is helping them and how? If you have or know children, you must wonder, as I do, how these young people survive such staggering events or avoid symptoms of PTSD.
I recently interviewed clinical psychologist Shai Hen-Gal of Tel Aviv, Israel. Hen-Gal works with wartime trauma in children and has created a successful short-term intervention we should all know about: Hibuki.
