About this Event
Training - 3 -Phase Trauma Model
Trauma is often referenced as particular events (such as physical or sexual abuse, car accidents, etc.). But trauma is just as much (or even more so) the impact that the event has on the nervous system and body. Trauma comes with survival states, such as fight, flight, freeze, disconnect and flop that often show themselves in the therapy room. It is vital that as counsellors, psychotherapists, psychologists, social workers, mental health professionals, teachers, GP's, nurses, and any other mental health professional, that we learn to recognise these survival responses in clients, so that we can increase the therapeutic safety.
In this training you'll be taught the 3-phase trauma model and how you can put it in practice:
1. Establishing a sense of safety (physical and emotional), building a therapeutic relationship and managing post-trauma symptoms.
2. Processing memories and/or feelings
3. Integration in the here-and-now and future prospects
The 3-phase trauma model connects to polyvagal theory and we will cover all 3 tenets: Hierarchy, neuroception and co-regulation. This training will support you to recognise dysregulation with your clients more easily, whilst giving you some of the tools to increase safety. We will also take a look at your own nervous system, so that we are more tuned into our regulation (and dysregulation). We are our own biggest instrument!
This is an experiential training and is suitable for both student and qualified professionals. This Training Day can be taken on its own, or as the 1st training day as part of the NCPS Quality Checked 10-day Foundation Diploma - Therapeutic Safety in Trauma. It is taught face-to-face in London.
