Original Program Date :
Length: 1:19:12


Description:

In the aftermath of traumatic and victimizing experiences, most individuals are impacted, but 75% evidence resilience while 25% “get stuck” and develop PTSD and co-occurring disorders. This presentation will discuss what distinguishes these two groups and considers the implications for treatment.

Educational Objectives:

  1. Distinguish the neuro-biological and psycho-social consequences of trauma and resilience and the implications for treatment.
  2. Discuss practical ways to bolster resilience in six domains (physical, interpersonal, emotional, cognitive, behavioral, and spiritual).
