Treating Trauma
In this training, participants will 1) Learn how to use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) interventions to support students who have experienced trauma and 2) Learn how to utilize evidence-based treatment methods in the school setting.
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) estimates that more than two thirds of school aged children have experienced at least one traumatic event by age 16. This staggering statistic suggests that a significant number of students are likely struggling with mental health issues related to trauma. This training will teach therapeutic, evidence-based practice interventions for working with students who have experienced trauma. The trainer will break down the steps involved in a cognitive behavioral approach and will share resources and strategies for working with students in an academic setting.
