Description

Attend this intensive training and leave with the skills to better treat and heal trauma that exists within the family. Acquire an understanding of how to improve the lives of children, adolescents and their caregivers by increasing quality of stability and connection that is shared between family members. This is the only certificate training that teaches this groundbreaking method to impact children and adolescents before it’s too late.

Dr. Robert Rhoton, vice president of the International Association of Trauma Professionals (IATP) will show you how the treatment of children and adolescents is enhanced by approaching treatment from a family based perspective. He will teach a process for stabilizing families to improve outcomes of trauma focused treatment. You will be able to help reduce the shame, guilt and judgement that are a result of the trauma and stress that are active within families.

This training reflects the current research based approach to working with the entire family to resolve trauma including those experienced by the child. You will leave with:

  • A greater understanding that problematic behaviors are often reactions of the Central Nervous System (CNS) to environmental stress
  • A reasonable view that asking a child to out regulate or behave more maturely than the dynamic of their environment creates additional stress and strain
  • Strategies to engage the caregiving system in resolving trauma with children and adolescents
  • The ability to capture the resources of a family to improve care and create greater safety and stability for the family

This cutting-edge approach not only improves the life of a child, but changes the dynamic of an entire family for the better. Come and learn how to deeply impact children and adolescents through family engagement and treatment for trauma.

In addition, completion of this training meets the educational requirements when applying to become a Certified Family Trauma Professional (International Association of Trauma Professionals www.traumapro.net).
