Description
- How other diagnosis mask Trauma and PTSD
- Discover effective CBT tools to connect with traumatized adolescents
- Empower adolescents to adopt effective coping skills
Hitting a sibling, yelling at parents, acting out in class, tuning-out, shouting, shoving, rebelling… all behaviors in a traumatized child or youth that can mask as ADHD, ODD or other clinical issues.
Recognizing and correctly assessing a traumatized child is the first step. In this seminar, you’ll learn:
- What assessment tools are available
- How to best use them
- When you are required (by law) to report the case, and the loss of trust with the child
From that foundation, learn trauma-informed CBT techniques that give children and adolescents tools to:
- Regulate their behavior
- Moderate the anxiety
- Develop coping skills
- Rebuild relationships so that they can feel safe and secure
