From 2009-10 Margaret Green ran this blog to share interesting articles, stories and news of Cape Town Trauma Centre events. Interested colleagues and members of the public were invited to to browse through the blog and send comments and suggestions, their own stories of triumph over trauma or any hints and tips, trauma articles, books, journal publications etc. The blog also kept readers informed of Trauma Centre seminars, workshops and training sessions and any other interesting and developmental matters.

I have been living in my hometown - Cape Town - for 15 years now after many years of living abroad; first in New York and then in London. After I returned to South Africa in 1999, I worked part-time at the Trauma Centre doing trauma counselling, working with people who experienced human rights abuses during the apartheid era and also with refugees. I now work part-time in my private practice.
