THE NEUROSCIENCE AND TREATMENT OF CHILDHOOD TRAUMA
A one-day training seminar for psychotherapists, psychologists and child specialists
A one-day training seminar for psychotherapists, psychologists and child specialists
28 JANUARY 2012 - LONDON
ABOUT THIS EVENT
This day of accessible presentations will empower professionals with the latest research on the long-term effects of trauma on the child’s developing brain, the effects of post-traumatic stress and attachment disorders. Dr Sunderland will explore the reasons for disturbed behaviour, traumatic enactment and psychosomatisation in childhood. She will explain, from our emerging understanding of the neurobiology of trauma, how physical action is necessary to initiate new ways for the child to perceive reality, and to calm some of the most primitive alarm systems in the brain. These therapeutic understandings are also relevant to adults suffering from past childhood trauma. Most importantly Dr Sunderland will consider implications for treatment, right down to the specifics of how to be, what to say, and how to listen so that children and young people can feel safe enough to want to share and work through their traumatic experiences.
