https://bpt.me/4306187Individual trauma is defined by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) as “an event, series of events, or set of circumstances that is experienced by an individual as physically or emotionally harmful or life threatening and that has lasting adverse effects on the individual’s functioning and mental, physical, social, emotional, or spiritual well-being.”
In a "Mini TED talk" format with discussion, a distinguished group of researchers and clinicians will discuss current understandings of the neuroscience of memory and trauma, secondary and vicarious stress affecting health care providers, and current approaches and innovations in the treatment of emotional and psychological trauma including psychedelic- and MDMA-assisted therapies, and the new "non-exposure" Flash Technique®. The role of trauma in health, with international perspectives, will also be addressed.
This program will be of interest to medical, nursing, mental health and spiritual care providers.
