Webinar Description

As Mindfulness continues to be an increasingly popular component of mental health treatment, it is pertinent to consider ways to engage in these interventions from a trauma-informed perspective. Research shows that use of mindfulness can reduce trauma-related symptoms (Kelly & Garland, 2016).  

While research largely focuses on the benefits of these interventions in treatment, it is equally important to consider the risks of these practices with clients who experience trauma-related disorders and symptoms.  In some instances, it may even be retraumatizing to explore this level of connectedness to the body without first establishing the presence of safety (Treleaven, & Britton, 2018).  This two hour training will focus on understanding mindfulness and trauma as they relate to benevolent and effective treatment. We will highlight the benefits and risks of utilizing mindfulness practices to increase sensory awareness in clients who experience trauma. Participants will explore and demonstrate use of trauma-informed interventions with other treatment modalities; and, identify ways to skillfully utilize mindfulness interventions to promote better client outcomes.
