dc.description.abstractTrauma is a deeply distressing experience that can cause physical and psychological consequences. With high lifetime prevalence, more mental health professionals are being called to work alongside clients who have encountered traumatic events and are struggling to rebound from the experience. The field of psychology has gained traction in finding deeper understanding to help clients overcome adversity through the discovery of inner strengths to foster resilience. Factors such as personality influenced by birth order have gained recognition for affecting an individual's level of resilience. This capstone aims to provide a comprehensive overview on how birth order develops personality and how it influences an individual’s ability to bounce back from adverse experiences. It will provide insight into what birth order is, factors that influence birth order, the controversy surrounding the topic, how it relates to resiliency and which therapeutic intervention fosters resilience. Lastly, the capstone will conclude by proposing a six-session intervention plan designed to help mental health professionals counsel clients to build upon the strengths they already possess to foster resilience and help them overcome their traumatic experiences.
