Trauma-informed care emerges at critical points in treatment — recognizing how past experiences shape present symptoms, distinguishing between adaptive responses and pathology, identifying triggers, and supporting clients in building meaningful, sustainable change. This course provides the clinical structure and direction necessary to apply EMDR’s three-pronged approach, ACT interventions, and strengths-based reframing, helping clinicians foster resilience, enhance psychological flexibility, and support post-traumatic growth while maintaining ethical, culturally responsive care.

Training Objectives:

Summarize Dr. Gabor Maté’s framework of trauma as a disconnection from the self and a “normal” response to an “abnormal” environment and Dr. Dan Siegel’s “overwhelm” of system causing disintegration
Demonstrate trauma-informed care and cultural considerations across client populations
Diagnose in accordance with DSM 5-tr diagnostic criteria
Understand the EMDR three-pronged approach (past, present, future) to identify where trauma started and how it informs current triggers
Identify two specific ACT interventions, such as cognitive defusions, to help clients distance themselves from traumatic thought patterns
