Held via Zoom
Charles Small, LCSW
CEUs: 2

This 2-hour presentation will provide participants with a comprehensive overview of the mental health field’s understanding of posttraumatic stress disorder as a unique psychological response to exposure to traumatic events.  This will include historical perspectives on psychological trauma, current evidence-based approaches to treating PTSD, and other integrative interventions.  Additionally, we will discuss Jung’s own contributions to our understanding of trauma, and how it can help people who suffer from the effects of trauma.  This workshop is particularly relevant given the widespread impact of current sources of trauma, including the pandemic, systemic oppression and racism, social unrest, climate crises, and geopolitical conflicts.
