With an increased understanding of the impact of trauma, clinicians are beginning to recognize specific issues for men, transgender, and nonbinary people. This includes the silence that surrounds men’s abuse and other adverse childhood experiences, the effects of male socialization on men's response to such experiences, the risk of victims becoming abusers and perpetrators of violence, and the need to understand men's shame and reluctance to explore their trauma.
Exploring Trauma+: A Brief Intervention for Men and Gender-Diverse People is an innovative and research-based, six-session curriculum that is designed for people who have been abused or have experienced other forms of trauma. Topics include defining trauma, understanding the process of trauma, trauma’s impact on the inner self (thoughts, feelings, beliefs) and the outer self (behaviors and relationships), building resilience, and coping and calming strategies. Participant-led grounding activities are part of this interactive workshop.
Please note: this is a 2-day training. You must attend both days to receive credit.
