Developing Your Trauma Toolkit Sat 17th & Sun 18th February

IACP CPD-Approved Hours: 12

This 2 day interactive, theoretical & practical workshop will introduce the central principles of trauma-informed practice & help therapists & mental health practitioners develop confidence in working with clients’ trauma.

Combining current trauma research, experiential exercises, skills practice & using a somatic approach, it will explore some of trauma’s neurophysiological aspects, develop familiarity with interventions that address these aspects & aid the practitioner in developing a trauma toolkit.

Course Content: The two days will incorporate two trauma models to explore:

·       Key components, sources & symptoms of psychological trauma;

·       The three stage approach to working with trauma and the therapist’s role in each;

·       The importance of regulation and how to use it in therapy;

·       Fight/Flight/Freeze/Collapse responses;

·       Some dynamics of attachment/developmental trauma;

·       Trauma’s brain-body link & relevance of using the body in working with it;

·       The importance of the therapeutic relationship using a polyvagal lens

·       Some stage-specific practical skills and interventions to help clients regulate and to begin to both process and integrate their experiences safely
