Copyright 1979-2012    Jesse W. Collins II Focused Care- and Cure-Based “Focused-caring”- and “cure”-based epistemology refers to the intellectual ─ to include thought-model ─ environment needed, required and created for the exclusive purpose of resolving trauma completely, which is the synonym for the cure of psychological trauma and PTSD. Recognizing that “caring” occurs and is done through myriad methods, and etc., the emphasis here on “focused-based” derives from the use of a management structure that directs the care to the centrallity or heart of the problem attending trauma by removing former cultural impediments, often administered as psychopathology, that misdirected the benefits of such caring and in the process retarded attempts to cure psychological trauma.   The “cure-based” element of the epistemology refers to the facilitated (through the “focused-caring” management structure) but otherwise natural extinction of the molecular substrate at or otherwise ongoing in trauma’s etiology; and again, as that etiology is defined in this work. The referenced epistemology consists of the learned clinical experience and rationales for      a) hosting the clinical application in an environment that accounts for and removes resolution-interfering          exogenous variables;        b) so called crisis management on the scene that delineates event rendered trauma which          will become trauma etiology and a plan (schedule) with attendant short and full form modality or methodology          (Trauma Resolution Therapy TRT) for reversing, expunging, removing – meaning curing – trauma etiologies of           both near- (under ninety days) and long-term (past ninety days) trauma;      c) the structured to include focused-caring- and cure-based approaches to both near- and long-term including          multiple sources of trauma (more recently, hyperbollically and thus confusingly termed “complex trauma”);      d) the removal of near and long term trauma’s managerial (analysis and decision making) effects on systems; and      e) intervention upon and prevention of perpetrator (for example, terrorist) use of trauma’s          deleterious effects on targeted defensive managements of antagonist systems (opposing forces as in the military).   More . . .
