Ashira Darwish illustrates how, in the harsh reality of the Israeli occupation, the experience of trauma can become a part of daily life, profoundly impacting mental health and community bonds. Her insights emphasize the need for tailored therapeutic approaches that resonate with the cultural and situational context of those suffering in conflict zones.
Darwish's personal narrative of overcoming physical paralysis after the trauma inflicted by Israeli soldiers showcases not only her resilience but also the possibility of recovery. This journey informs her work as a therapist, where she employs methods grounded in the lived experiences of her community instead of conventional Western approaches.
