In this presentation, participants will learn how to assess and make sense of trauma-based symptoms, such as dysregulated autonomic arousal, overwhelming emotions and sensations, intrusive images, numbing and disconnection. They will discover how to use psychoeducation to help clients manage these overwhelming symptoms and change their relationship to the traumatic events. In addition, participants will be taught how to integrate neurobiologically - informed treatment techniques into psychotherapy that help resolve the traumatic past and finally put it to rest.
