When trauma happens, it can result in years of mental health and addictive disorders before a person seeks help. How can we as helping professionals transform years of unresolved trauma into a healing experience within a limited number of sessions?
In this webinar Dr. Stephanie Covington, co-author of two brief interventions for men and women, will discuss the most effective therapeutic strategies you can implement when your setting or situation only allows a short amount of time.
The interventions introduced are both trauma informed and gender responsive: Healing Trauma for women and Exploring Trauma for men. You will hear how coping skills, grounding exercises and other interactive activities are integrated into six-sessions or less. She also provides you with a suggestion when you only have five minutes.
Objectives:
After this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Define three key elements that staff and clients need to know
- Describe Healing Trauma: A Brief Intervention for Women
- Describe Exploring Trauma: A Brief Intervention for Men
- Incorporate some coping skills into their work with women and men
- Use the five minute dialogue
