Register here for a free webinar with Dr. Stephanie Covington.
With a deeper understanding of the impact of trauma, clinicians are more equipped to recognize the unique trauma experiences men face. These include men’s silence surrounding abuse and other adverse childhood experiences, the effects of male socialization on men's response to trauma and abuse, the need to understand men's shame and fear of acknowledging trauma, and the risk of victims becoming abusers and perpetrators of violence.
This webinar will also introduce the evidence-based, six-session trauma curriculum, Exploring Trauma: A Brief Intervention for Men. Exploring Trauma is an adaptation of the research-based work, Healing Trauma: A Brief Intervention for Women, by Dr. Stephanie Covington.
Topics include:
- Understanding trauma in men and its process
- Trauma’s impact on the inner self (thoughts, feelings, beliefs)
- Trauma’s impact on the outer self (behaviors and relationships)
- Coping and calming strategies
There will be a Q&A session at the end of the formal presentation. You can submit questions within the registration form or during the webinar. We look forward to having you join us and renowned speaker, Dr. Stephanie Covington.
