Elana Newman is not your average clinical psychologist. In her talk, she shares stories and provides a new perspective on the important role journalists can play in saving lives during a tragedy.
Elana Newman, Ph.D. is the McFarlin Chair of Psychology, University of Tulsa, Research Director of the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma, Co-director of the University of Tulsa Institute of Trauma, Adversity and Injustice and a past president of the International Society of Traumatic Stress Studies. Newman specializes in understanding and intervening to prevent or treat trauma-related conditions and training students and professionals about the skills they need to work effectively with people suffering from trauma-related problems. Newman co-directed the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma’s’ first satellite office in NYC after 9-11 to offer technical support to journalists covering these events.
