Another skills-based workshop from our “Nothing But Skills” workshop series! So remember to wear comfortable clothes, bring your water bottle and your openness to learn actual skills that you may use the next day in your practice! We’ll utilize small and large group work and begin using the skills of resourcing, tracking sensation, breathwork, tapping, imagery, and immediate safety.
There are a lot of trauma treatment models available today, however the client must learn to effectively manage their trauma symptoms before beginning the deep work of releasing the stored energy of somatic symptoms.
Client confidence in learning skills that manage their trauma symptoms such as anxiety and panic attacks are a important part of the healing equation prior to moving on to trauma treatment such as Natural Flow EMDR, TRM, EFT, Somatic Experiencing, and Sensorimotor. Another factor is the client therapist relationship. How he or she is able to develop a strong trusting relationship with the client and how well that therapist is able to carry out the model will bring about a more effective outcome. Therapist confidence is another key factor which has led us to offer a skills-based series with lots of practice.
The first step for an effective therapist is to understand trauma, its effect upon the body and brain, how it manifests differently in people, why some will be more resilient and not retain the devastating effects that others will carry for life, showing up as chronic mental and physical health problems.
The second step will begin with learning emotional regulation so that the trauma may be managed by the individual on a day to day basis. Emotional dysregulation is a leading trigger for relapse in both substance abuse and mental illness.
The third step is referring the client to trauma treatment after they are well on their way to managing their daily symptoms.
Learn about your's and the client’s zone of resiliency, how your brain functions with stress and trauma, how the brain heals and the skills to heal it. Be prepared to practice and begin using these simple and effective models as a counselor and then share it with your client to add to their recovery tool box!
This workshop will use both dual diagnosis and SA case studies for practicing counselor skills.
OBJECTIVES:
Lunch served. We look forward to seeing you there!
