Abstract: | This article explores the specific context of a single event criminal assault, (i.e., a stranger non-sexual assault that occurred
during a robbery) and shares the theoretical framework that successfully guided the clinician’s assessment, treatment planning,
and interventions. Based on a literature review and employing a case study, this article presents the potential norms of trauma
aftermath following a single event non-sexual criminal assault. It provides an overview of those theoretical frameworks that
have consistently proven effective with this population; this article shares the rationale for selecting cognitive trauma
therapy and illustrates its application to an assault survivor.
