Trauma Processing

Training Description

Providing treatment targeting a myriad of changes undergone since a client’s trauma experience is challenging for mental health providers. A one-size-fits-all intervention may not fully address the uniqueness of each client’s recovery journey. The context of a survivor’s experience and the counseling milieu are important variables to consider. This presentation will discuss utilizing integrative psychotherapy techniques, allowing for a client’s context to be taken into account, and the importance of rapport-building. Examples of trauma processing techniques will also be discussed, including addressing PTSD symptoms related to guilt, anger, and grief.
