Rising to the occasion – India needs a large team of trained trauma
therapists
Trauma First Aid (TFA) offers a new and hopeful vision of trauma. It is a
short-term naturalistic approach to the resolution and healing of trauma
based on Somatic Experiencing developed by Dr. Peter A. Levine.
A therapy that helps people access their body’s natural immunity to
stressful events.
TFA facilitates the healing process by helping traumatized people release
stored survival energy and complete interrupted biological patterns that are
“stuck” in the nervous system.
TFA offers a comprehensive theoretical and clinical approach to helping
clients work through symptoms of traumatic stress from a variety of
traumatic situations in a variety of clinical settings.
The training employs awareness of body sensation to help people
“renegotiate” and heal their trauma, rather than relive or re-enact it.
It “titrates” survival energies when discharging traumatic stress, rather
than catharsis, which can re-overwhelm the regulative mechanisms of the
person. The training helps eliminate the pitfalls of re-traumatization.
This training will help you to:
– Understand the physiological basis of trauma.
– Learn about containment, re-sourcing and empowerment.
– Study tracking skills, titration and establishing continuity through the
felt sense.
– Practice establishing defensive orienting responses, completion and
discharge.
– Be able to identify, normalize, and stabilize traumatic reactions.
– Attain skills to avoid pitfalls of re-traumatization.
– Investigate the transformative qualities of trauma.
Acquire short-term solutions to acute and chronic symptoms.
Who will benefit: Health/Helping Professions from all disciplines:
Psychotherapists, physicians, body worker, nurses, chiropractors, etc.
Everybody who wants to heal his/her own traumas and would like to know more
about this amazing work.
Specially all the mothers, fathers and teachers wanting to help their kids
in a safe and supportive way!
