Trauma & The Brain: How They Work Together

Trauma & The Brain: How They Work Together is organized by E Care Behavioral Health Institute.

Overview:
When thinking of trauma, we often think of symptoms such as hypervigilance and behavioral avoidance. But where do these symptoms come from? The brain is a central part in the development of trauma across the life span.

In his workshop, Diane Bigler, LCSW will present a basic overview of neuroscience and learners will deepen their understanding of how the brain contributes to trauma development. General characteristics of a trauma response will be discussed. Learners will be encouraged to strengthen their knowledge of the brain’s role in trauma and discover brain-based approaches for supporting clients with trauma.

Objectives:
Distinguish parts of the brain responsible for trauma development.
Formulate an understanding of typical trauma responses.
Discover methods of supporting clients with brain-based interventions for trauma.

Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
