Richard Tedeschi

Richard Tedeschi is a psychologist known for his research on trauma and how individuals grow positively after difficult experiences. He studied how some people find new meaning, strength, or appreciation for life following adversity, a process called post-traumatic growth. Tedeschi’s work helps us understand that while trauma is challenging, it can also lead to personal development and enhanced well-being when properly processed and supported. His insights are used in therapy and support strategies to help individuals turn their pain into opportunities for growth.
