Center For Traumatic Stress Research

Center For Traumatic Stress Research The XULA Center for Traumatic Stress Research was founded in 2012 by Dr. Cirecie West-Olatunji, a counselor educator.

The focus of the research center team is to investigate the psychological and emotional effects of trauma on individuals, families, and communities due to: (a) cultural hegemony in education, (b) natural and human-made disasters, and (c) child sexual abuse (CSA). The investigators also seek to discover empirically tested clinical interventions that mitigate the effects of traumatic stress for client populations.
