Abstract

Psychological rehabilitation following traumatic events is essential for individuals to regain a sense of well-being and resilience. Emotional intelligence (EI) has emerged as a promising tool in trauma recovery, yet its specific role and effectiveness remain underexplored. This research aims to investigate the relevance of EI as a tool for psychological rehabilitation after traumatic events. Through the analysis of clinical cases, this study seeks to elucidate the impact of EI interventions on promoting resilience and facilitating recovery among trauma survivors. Clinical cases, presented in literature, of individuals who have experienced traumatic events were analyzed to assess the role of EI in their psychological rehabilitation. The results reveal that EI interventions significantly contribute to psychological rehabilitation after traumatic events. The integration of EI strategies into trauma recovery programs facilitated resilience-building and enhanced overall well-being among trauma survivors. Hence, the research underscores the relevance of EI as a tool for psychological rehabilitation after traumatic events. The conclusions highlight the effectiveness of EI interventions in promoting resilience and facilitating recovery among trauma survivors. By incorporating EI strategies into trauma recovery programs, mental health professionals can enhance the effectiveness of interventions and support individuals in their journey toward healing and recovery.
