CBT and Other Approaches to Understanding and Recovery

What you'll learn
Identify possible interrelationships between trauma, dissociation, and psychosis, including ways that psychosis itself can be traumatizing
Describe a variety of possible causal routes from trauma to psychotic experiences, and understand the possible role of dissociation within that process
Utilize proven cognitive strategies to address command and persecutory voices, and other common & distressing experiences found in trauma-associated psychosis
Plan to integrate CBT for psychosis with various trauma therapies to effectively treat clients who have experienced both trauma and psychosis
Demonstrate a collaborate approach to helping clients develop coherent and compassionate stories of trauma and recovery

Requirements
This course will still make sense to those without prior training in CBT or any trauma therapies, although such prior training will likely be helpful in understanding some of the material.

Description
Develop a humanistic understanding of how adverse life events can lead to reactions such as dissociation and psychosis, and then learn approaches and skills which will allow you to support people in changing those reactions and turning toward recovery! After taking this course, you will be able to bring a truly trauma informed perspective into your work with people who are struggling with the most serious disorders. Topics covered include: Optimal style of therapy Shifting from what s wrong to what happened & what next Building coherent, self-compassionate recovery narratives Incorporating mindfulness approaches Overcoming dissociative splits Shifting from suppression to boundaries along with some openness Finding & working with themes in metaphorical expressions Spiritual considerations

Work toward the possibility of true healing, not just managing an illness !

Though mainstream approaches still commonly focus on biological factors, a large body of research now provides strong evidence that psychosis is often an understandable reaction to trauma, abuse, and other adverse experiences, with dissociation commonly at the center of that reaction.

This course presents a science based yet very humanistic and understandable conceptualization of the complex difficulties which can occur in response to adverse life events, and then teaches how CBT and other approaches can be used to help people change their relationship with these experiences, opening up possibilities for recovery.

Included in the course are video lectures, slides with some diagrams, lots of case examples, exploratory exercises, and links to additional resources for study. The course will take 6 hours to complete.
