The articles included in this Special Issue of Psychodynamic Psychiatry focus on the neuroscience of intrapsychic trauma. Understanding the brain basis of trauma allows for more informed therapeutic decisions-both biological and psychodynamic. Just as there is no one cause of mental disorders, there is no one treatment. Furthermore, the neuroscience of trauma is early in its development as a discipline. This editorial highlights important aspects of trauma and current knowledge in relationship to the brain and behavior. A variety of approaches to this topic may be found in the articles included in this Special Issue.
