In PTSD Master Class, our focus is on strategies to help our clients break the Cycle of Traumatic Memory using effective, evidence-based strategies for managing intrusive imagery, somatic re-experiencing and post-traumatic flashbacks. 

It will offer you a firm foundation for working with PTSD using Trauma-Focused CBT, underpinned by a relational philosophy.

We will focus on strategies to: 
    • How to Help Clients Disrupt the Traumatic Memory-Threat Cycle
    • Updates in neuroscience. Plus analogies to help us and our clients understand what is happening in the brain
    • The role of memory processes in the maintenance of PTSD
    • How to Help Clients Process Traumatic Memories safely - without becoming Re-traumatised using Enhanced Reliving Cognitive Behavioural Therapy underpinned by a Relational Philosophy 
    • Understand the Ehlers & Clark model using clinical case studies
    • Avoiding pitfalls in therapy
    • How to help our clients build threat resilience and reclaim their life following trauma

Current theories of PTSD, updates in neuroscience and the role of memory processes in the maintenance of PTSD will be explored, along with case formulation and therapy.

PTSD Master Class is highly practical, with clinical demonstration using live actor and video footage to model therapy skills. This process enables the opportunity to see, experience and to practice using real material in a simulated context. Not only cutting-edge research updates but Innovative “hands-on” skills training. In-depth case formulation & discussion Real-time demonstration, & practice of skills in a safe environment. Empirically based Trauma-Focused CBT for our complex real–world clinical work.
