Abstract

This paper uses a narrative approach from which a clinical understanding of trauma is made by using the geographical metaphor of location, dislocation, and relocation. These descriptors encompass the idea of life as a journey where individuals find their sense of being located, dislocated and relocated depending on where they are at. Often with people who have experienced multiple traumas there is a dominant sense of feeling dislocated and therefore the need to think about location and relocation from a clinical perspective. The location, dislocation and relocation framework is an innovative intervention that enhances clients’ wellbeing by improving the therapeutic abilities for all who support and care for them. As well as creating a wider understanding of working with trauma responses and offering coherence for practitioners wanting to use this approach. It creates a common language that is multi-disciplinary and has the potential to create coherence, coordination, and an excellence of care abilities within the whole system.
