Male Trauma

Dr. Debra is a leading Male Trauma Expert in the diagnosis, effects and treatment of male trauma. The silent epidemic of male survivors of trauma, whether it is sexual, physical or emotional is rarely discussed today. Approximately one in six men have been abused as children. The rate of adult abuse is even higher when occupational and societal abuse is included.

She has devoted her professional efforts to helping men and their loved ones confront and conquer their long term effects of trauma on the male psyche. As a spouse of a survivor she is personally experienced in recognizing the signs of coping mechanisms, and their effects on the sometimes unaware spouse. She is the author of His Story, Her Story: A Survival Guide for Spouses of Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse and Trauma. She addresses the issue from both a personal and professional perspective.
