Overview
This in-depth advanced workshop examines the incidence and impact of victimizing and traumatic events across the life-span. Dr. Meichenbaum will explain the qualities of those who have resilience to trauma and how therapists can help those who struggle with their traumas.
He will use a Case Conceptualization Model that informs both assessment and treatment decision-making, and a Constructive Narrative “strengths-based” intervention approach to address the range of challenging emotional client reactions such as Prolonged and Complicated Grief, Guilt, Shame, Anger and Moral Injuries.
Most important, Dr. Meichenbaum will explain how to implement the Core Tasks of Psychotherapy that contribute to lasting behavioral changes. Attendees will receive a comprehensive TO DO CHECKLIST that will enable them to immediately implement interventions presented. He will use video cases throughout the program.
