Description
Let’s face it – treating trauma is hard work and it’s not always clear what needs to be done. Dysregulated nervous systems, co-morbidities, and a myriad of psychotherapeutic and psychopharmacological options often make it difficult to reach the desired goals for your clients.
Even though you may not be a prescriber of medications, it’s essential that you have a thorough understanding of the effects medication has in treating trauma.
Watch world renowned trauma expert Frank Guastella Anderson, MD, in this recording as he guides you through the essentials of Psychopharmacology related to the treatment of Trauma and Dissociation.
Dr. Anderson will teach you how to:
- Integrate psychopharmacological and psychotherapeutic approaches
- Identify positive and negative effects of medication
- Prepare clients for adding medication to their treatments
- Understand the effects of trauma on neurobiological processes
- Assess clients for appropriate medication referrals
Improve your outcomes through the understanding and application of the interplay between medications, psychotherapy and trauma.
