Abstract
Childhood trauma impacts typical adolescent identity development. Research and clinical interventions exist to support childhood trauma survivors; however, it remains unclear whether adolescent survivors will experience a rich identity development process. This proposed study will measure the impact of a new Protocol for Identity Development on adolescent identity formation.
