This training takes a deep dive into four integral principles of resourcing and stabilization to prepare birth trauma survivors for trauma processing: 1) working within the Window of Tolerance; 2) engaging in adaptive coping for nervous system dysregulation; 3) increasing emotional and somatic literacy; and 4) strengthening dual awareness. Participants will learn how to explain these concepts to their clients using easy-to-understand language. Participants will come away equipped with deeper knowledge and clinical tools to integrate into their clinical practice with survivors of birth trauma.
Understand the Window of Tolerance, including how to teach this concept to clients and incorporate psychoeducation about the neurobiology of trauma into the clinical dialogue.
Understand the conceptual importance of emotional/somatic literacy, and how to help clients enhance this skill.
Learn how to help clients identify somatic and relational resources (relational resources may include the baby, partner, doula, or other caregivers/providers).
Demonstrate understanding of interventions that help clients practice and enhance capacity for dual awareness (Flashback Halting Protocol, CIPOS).
