Are you looking to Develop and Expand on a Safe Trauma Therapy Approach?

This online learning program provides Psychologists, Psychotherapists, Counsellors and other mental health professionals with an intensive overview of safe trauma therapy approaches. The program explores a range of safe trauma therapy approaches including Stabilisation Based Therapy, Somatic Trauma Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Radically Open DBT, Mindfulness and exposure based approaches to trauma therapy.

Phase Based Approach to Safe Trauma Therapy

A phase based approach to safe trauma therapy has been well documented with trauma experts including Rothschild, Levine, Fisher and van der Kolk advocating for a phase based approach. Over the last 20 years this approach has been further developed by our course developer, Dr. Peter L. King, to include a deescalation and containment phase in addition to the Stabilisation and Processing/Insight phases.

Practice and collaboration is essential!

We have found that the best way to get the most from online training is to practice the programs techniques and strategies in a safe collegial environment. Knowing this we have developed a range of strategies to support collegial collaboration including: What'sApp group, Facebook group, Saturday morning Zoom group to interact with your colleagues and a discussion feature within the course. All these options are optional and not moderated by our team... we do insist that all interactions must remain professional at all times.

Using Trauma Informed DBT for Stabilisation

Why DBT training in the trauma intensive? Self-control, the ability to inhibit competing urges, impulses, or behaviours is highly valued by most societies. Excessive under-control has been linked to impulsivity, erratic interpersonal functioning, poor distress tolerance, maladaptive coping, extreme emotional expressions, and difficult-to-treat mental health problems, such as borderline personality disorder, binge eating disorders, bipolar and depression in later years. Many of these traits and diagnostic categories are all too frequent in populations with trauma histories!

Using Radically Open DBT for Stabilisation

Why RO-DBT training in the trauma intensive? Self-control, the ability to inhibit competing urges, impulses, or behaviours is highly valued by most societies. However, excessive self-control has been linked to social isolation, aloof interpersonal functioning, maladaptive perfectionism, constricted emotional expressions, and difficult-to-treat mental health problems, such as anorexia nervosa, obsessive compulsive personality disorder and refractory depression. Many of these traits and diagnostic categories are all too frequent in populations with trauma histories!

Structuring the Transition from Stabilisation to Processing and Insight Work

This program explores a range of strategies identified to assess the strength of an individual's stabilisation whilst also providing an opportunity to ensure the therapists techniques feel safe and stable for the individual client. Using a memory frame, anchors and assessing association to memories using SIBAM all techniques used to structure the transition towards trauma memory processing and insight based therapeutic work. Attendees will be supported in the use of these strategies which will initially be taught during 3 x 3hr Zoom sessions and access to role plays between Babette Rothschild and Dr. Peter L. King.

Integrating the evidence base into a safe trauma therapy approach

In addition to 20 years of clinical application and 15 years of supervision and teaching this approach, the evidence base in considered in formulating the safe trauma therapy approach articulated within this course. The three phase based approach is known to hold considerable evidence advocating for its efficacy! As does the model of crisis intervention in for stabilising a crisis. DBT is the gold standard treatment for individual stabilisation for presentations of excessive under-control and RO-DBT for excessive over-control presentations. The Stabilisation Based Therapy contains the before mentioned approaches provides a frame to apply additional processing baed approaches including exposure!

Explore three processing and insight strategies

When someone advises a clinician that they would like to process their trauma what do you offer as a therapist? The first question we like to ask is, What would you like the outcome to be after processing your trauma? Unfortunately, this is not always a question asked by clinicians. As therapists we all have different skills, experience and training. This intensive training explores a minimum of three process and insight strategies and acknowledges many more!

Individuals who continue to freeze

Originally developed by the Body Dynamic Institute in Copenhagen and later refined by Babette Rothschild, the last section of this program explores the running technique. This is a technique where an individual imagines running towards a safe person in a safe place when processing a trauma memory. This approach has been found to be effective when working with individuals who freeze during and following a traumatic event.
