Presented by Robert Witchel, EdD, NCC
Disclosure of trauma (sexual, physical, and emotional abuse; family violence; parental or sibling death, accidents) from children and adults has challenged mental health and addiction professionals in a wide range of settings. This workshop offers an introduction to Somatic Experiencing, a short-term naturalistic approach to the resolution and healing of trauma developed by Dr. Peter Levine. Specific therapeutic strategies will be introduced that
- respond effectively to persons who have experience incidents that can lead to trauma, and
- promote the healing of trauma for children, adolescents, and adults.
