Mary Jo Barrett & Linda Stone Fish – PESI – Treating Trauma and Complex PTSD
When working with trauma cases do you see clients go into flight, fight, and/or freeze? Do they yell at you, insult you, or leave the session? Are there times you find yourself getting angry at your clients? Do you recognize your own flight, fight, and/or freeze response? Welcome to the messy, often confusing world of trauma treatment. In this workshop, you’ll explore practical in-session techniques as well as a framework to help you recognize what’s happening when things heat up and get intense. You’ll discover how to:
- Assess the client’s motivation, stage of change, and preferred mode of learning
- Effectively build a therapeutic collaboration around each client’s individual needs
- Understand the importance of therapist transparency and empower clients by making the therapy process as safe and explicit as possible
- Explore intrafamily violence and include additional family members in your sessions
