French to English: Narrative Exposure Therapy Detailed field: Psychology
Source text - French I spent the last couple of days undergoing a training in Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET). This is a technique used with victims of torture, trauma and violence that suffer from PTSD. Because of the way our brain stores our memories during a trauma, victims find it difficult to recall the event in an organized and detailed way. Due to the high levels of cortisol in the brain and the hyperactivity of the amygdala, the hippocampus fails to do its actual job: storing events as cold memories that is, in an organized and chronological way. Thus, traumas are stored as hot memories that are fragmented, blurry and with no particular recall for time and space. The aim of NET is to help clients rewrite their narrative by transforming hot memories into cold memories.
Translation - English Ces derniers quelques jours, j'etais en cours de formation en thérapie d'exposition narrative. C'est une méthode utilisée avec des victimes de torture, trauma et violence qui souffrent de SSPT (Syndrome de stress post-traumatique).
Due a la maniere dont notre cerveau stocke nos souvenirs durant un événement traumatique, les victimes trouvent du mal a se rappeler de l'événement de manière chronologique et détaillée. En raison du haut niveau de cortisol dans le cerveau et de l'hyperactivité de l'amygdale, l'hippocampe ne réussie pas a faire son travail, qui est de stocker les événement en temps que souvenir froid- c'est a dire de manière organisée et chronologique.
Donc, les événements traumatiques sont stocker en tant que souvenirs chaud qui sont fragmentés, flous et sans cadre spatio-temporel.
Le but de la thérapie d'exposition narrative est d'aider les clients a réécrire leur histoire en transforment les souvenir chaud en souvenir froid.
