Complex Trauma Iceberg Worksheet: C-PTSD Visual Aid for Therapists

This visual aid worksheet illustrates the multifaceted nature of complex trauma (C-PTSD) using the iceberg metaphor. It highlights visible symptoms (the "tip") and the deeper, often hidden layers of underlying causes, core wounds, and systemic impacts (the "submerged base"). Designed for therapists, survivors, and educators, this tool fosters understanding of how trauma manifests and informs pathways to recovery.
