    AbstractWe have not seen the last of natural disasters; nor have we endured the last of the terrorist acts. This article offers clinical guidance in providing mental health services to families in the aftermath of such events. The trauma experienced by an individual victimized by a natural disaster or terror attack reverberates through an entire family. Although based in established clinical practice, intervention with survivors of disasters is a different process from other treatments. A case illustrates the key principles and central methods of family therapy with a traumatized family.(c) 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
