Description
This CPD will give you an understanding of what PTSD and C-PTSD is, the symptoms and how they impact the survivor and their families, and how we can help as Solution Focused Hypnotherapists.
PTSD & C-PTSD (Complex PTSD) are present more and more within therapy sessions which can be daunting to deal with, understanding that they are more than flashbacks and panic attacks. Being able to recognise and have knowledge of the symptoms and how they can impact our clients and their families, will empower our client work. As therapists, we can give our clients back their power and the ability to move on from trauma. This full-day CPD will give you an understanding of what PTSD and C-PTSD are, the symptoms and how they impact the survivor and their families and how to help your client move from victim to survivor.
