Ratifying victimhood often paradoxically sensitizes to trauma’s effects, and is heavily reinforced socially. Therapists are challenged to help victims restore personal agency and accountability, without denying victimhood. Contracting for roles and boundaries precedes efforts to interdict traumatic re-enactment, redefine personal and social identity, access locus of control, and restore accountability.

Educational Objectives:

1. Demonstrate how ratifying victimhood can paradoxically sensitize to traumatization.
2. Describe roadblocks to identifying and interdicting traumatic reenactment.
3. Discuss how reframing personal identity can shift from helplessness to agency.
