Trauma 101: Theory and Treatment Approaches for Trauma-Informed Care – OnDemand
Recorded Webinar
This informative and fundamental course open to all mental health professionals begins with a review of how current knowledge of traumatology developed and how modern psychology has changed as a result of years of research and discovery. This change allows today’s mental health professionals to solve trauma-related symptoms and issues by way of trauma-informed treatment methods. Within this workshop, populations are addressed with consideration for culture, sex and gender, marginalization, as well as children and adolescents. Also covered in this course: exploration of tools and methods for trauma therapists, identifiers of Complex PTSD, neurobiological functions of the brain after traumatic events, psychobiological issues from traumatic memory, EMDR therapy’s AIP model and the role it plays in trauma, and the role of vicarious trauma for therapists. Participants will work with vignettes to learn trauma-informed approaches for treatment options.
