Resilience has a different meaning to different people. Personally, I view resilience as a preventative approach as a result of inflicted threats. The concept affects the entire ecosystem which is outlined by Urie Bronfenbrenner; from the individual to the Macrosystem. The determination of resilient practices depends on the context in which it occurs. Historically, resilience has been labeled as a deficit-based approach to overcoming adversity (Masten, 2001).

Through “compassion” and “respect” resilience can be achieved.…

According to Armsworth and Holaday (1993), Psychological trauma occurs when an individual is exposed to an overwhelming event that renders him or her helpless in the face of intolerable danger, anxiety, and instinctual arousal (p. 49). Anyone no matter what age, can experience a traumatic event. However, children are the ones mostly affected by a traumatic event. Trauma regardless if it is sexual abuse, physical abuse, or psychological abuse, affects a person’s life. The abuse will alter the way a person thinks, feels, and their ability to cope with the abuse. The human body responds to trauma in different ways. The traumatic experience or experiences can…
Safeguarding guidelines are vital because for children in risk every day matters, both the safeguarding agenda and academic research underline the damage that delayed intervention can cause and reinforce the importance of the joint working of professionals and institutions (DfE, 2013 and Broadhurst and Grover, 2009).

Mental health service provision is increasing and focusing more on the role of the primary care sector (Mental Health Drug and Alcohol Principal Committee, 2013). One particular mental health service is recovery-focused care - governments in many developed countries have suggested that mental health service systems should concentrate on the concept of recovery-focused practice (Cavanaugh, 2014).

Life is fraught with challenges to be overcome and obstacles to experience, and from the start we must learn how to bounce back from those challenges and obstacles. In Anna Harrington’s article, “Where There’s a Will, There’s a Way”, she defines resilience in a number of facets and argues that resilience is key to conquering life successfully. She states that resilience, or the art of bouncing back, is not about struggling in isolation, but about using and mobilizing normal human processes such as coping. (Harrington, 2012)…
