Empower families to be important allies for loved ones who seek healing from the wounds of sexual trauma.
Full Description:
Sexual trauma is the most common trauma many clinicians address in counseling. Whenever one partner’s sexual trauma wounds begin to surface in a relationship, dysfunction often results. Family systems often reel from the after effects of this trauma whenever it is disclosed, throwing everyone into grief and trauma responses.
In order for survivors to heal effectively from the trauma, empowering them and their support network (spouse/partner, parents, best friend) is critical. There must also be recognition that those who love and support the survivor are grieving and experiencing triggers as well. Ms. Bradley-Ball presents a step-by-step approach for helping the survivor choose and develop the appropriate support “team,” and educating, supporting, and stabilizing all involved throughout the grieving process.
Course Includes:
Live Q&A
Presentation Handout
Post session recording access
CE Credit
What You Will Learn:
Identify how to deepen or rebuild trust and intimacy between survivor and partner
Explain attachment exercises that begin the healing of betrayal trauma
Analyze the impact of “trauma composites” and why teaching the couple is important for long-term growth
Determine what non-offending family members need to know and do to help the victim after disclosure
Describe elements that empower families to support their survivor in the long-term and to begin their own healing
