Description
Description:
Effective treatment of post-traumatic problems needs to include addressing the imprint of trauma on the physical experience of the self as helpless and in danger. Recovery needs to incorporate dealing with defensive efforts that helped ensure survival, incorporate physical experiences that contradict feelings and sensations associated with helplessness and disconnection, as well as an effective way of integrating fragmented memories of trauma. Experiencing physical mastery (as in yoga and specific body based techniques) often is necessary to initiate new ways of perceiving reality and promote new behavior patterns. Helping the organism to bring the traumatic experience to an end is the goal of treatment. Workshop includes: Assessment and treatment planning; Recognition and treatment of trauma-based action patterns and dissociative responses; Completing of incomplete trauma responses; Words, actions, and relationships in the treatment of learned helplessness and dissociation; Specific techniques that address affect regulation, the integration of dissociated aspects of experience, overcoming helplessness, and the re-integration of human conditions.
Educational Objectives:
- To list three effective techniques to treat trauma.
- To describe two specific techniques to overcome helplessness.
