Training Description

The majority of system-involved youth have experienced numerous traumas. Often, the approach is to “talk it out” or refer the youth to talk therapy. While this is helpful, it’s essential to address how trauma impacts the body. This advanced course will build off content from the “Somatic strategies for trauma survivors” training and teach participants additional somatic strategies to support trauma survivors and improve outcomes for system involved youth and families.

Learning Objectives

1. Participants will be able to describe 3 somatic strategies for trauma survivors
