More so than ever, being trauma-informed means understanding the ways that neuroplasticity allows clients to flourish after traumatic experiences. If we can help them change the way their traumatic memories are stored and take responsibility for the narratives that define their lives, we can foster post-traumatic growth. As clients feel stronger, more self-accepting, and have an increased sense of purpose and belonging, their symptoms will decrease, their relationships will deepen, and they can access greater joy, appreciation, and connection. This interactive workshop will empower you with practical tools—such as the six pillars of resilience—to facilitate a strength-based approach to trauma recovery. You’ll learn to:
Guide clients in revising their trauma narratives in a way that supports growth
Help clients attend to the impact of traumatic events on the body so they can build vagal tone and vagal efficiency—an embodied experience of safety and receptivity
Harness client’s inherent resilience by building on protective factors that help prevent PTSD
Help clients integrate new movement resources and release traumatic activation
