Abstract
The article provides a comprehensive overview of modern approaches to trauma therapy. The historical origins of the concept of psychological trauma, its neuropsychological mechanisms, and contemporary scientific explanations are examined. The leading methods of trauma treatment are consistently described: cognitive-behavioral programs, EMDR therapy, body-oriented practices, mindfulness, narrative exposure therapy, and crisis interventions. It is shown how these methods naturally complement each other, forming an integral system of assistance. Special attention is paid to the development of trauma therapy in Ukraine, where it has become particularly important under wartime conditions.
