I offer occasional one-day workshops for counselling and psychotherapy practitioners on ‘Working with trauma in the body’, in which I cover the following topics :
– What is trauma and PTSD ?
– Brain function during and after trauma
– Different types of trauma
– Disturbances to self regulation in trauma
– How re-traumatision occurs and what we can do about it
– Trauma in the therapy room: basic principles of a body-based approach
The first one-day module can later on be followed up by a second module, which focuses on ‘Working with complex trauma’.
These days are designed as a combination of teaching and experiential work.
