This chapter draws on conclusions from the experience of Eastern European families and mental health providers in previous chapters to offer an overall framework for clinical practice that assesses the effects of sociocultural trauma and attends to the nuances and complexities of how these may differentially impact people across diverse contexts and situations. The authors emphasize the importance of therapeutic safety and a non-pathologizing, strength-based, third-order approach and provide guidelines for the assessment of sociocultural trauma that may be difficult to recognize. They offer guiding principles for treatment, with a couple therapy example that illustrates intergenerational manifestations of historical trauma on current relationships, and conclude with implications for self-of-the-therapist work.
