Working with Traumatized Adults

Working with Traumatized Adults

In this training trauma will be illustrated and addressed from the perspective of the neuro-physiological impact on adult social development, emotions and behavior. Participants will become familiar with the signs and symptoms of internal and external triggers experienced by our clients with specific interventions geared to creating inner calm and regulation in the stressed out adult. We will define trauma, identify triggers, signs and symptoms, and recognize trauma driven behaviors. We will examine ways to engage and help stabilize clients who are suffering, and in crisis. The goals of the training are to help retrain our thought patterns that will increase internal states of self -regulation and calm, and decrease overwhelming negative stress impacts and reactions concurrently for our clients and ourselves.
