Description:
Most mental health practitioners would say that they know how to help people who have experienced trauma; however, fewer develop and maintain proficiencies specific to treating trauma-related diagnoses. This can result in provision of psychotherapy that does not meet the standard of care and delays recovery. Ethical principles within the codes issued by the American Psychological Association and Catholic Psychotherapy Association call for better than this, as do other components of the standard of care.
Participants will be invited to assess their own levels of competency, proficiency, and proximity to specialization in the treatment of trauma-related symptoms and diagnoses.
