Trauma, PTSD & Traumatic Grief
Course Description (From www.PESI.com):
Attend this day of training and leave with a brand new toolkit of skills, interventions, and principles for rapid success with traumatized clients. Join Jamie Marich and learn the standard of care for treatment in the field of traumatic stress – and its key ingredients. Implement evidence-based treatment protocols and interventions for establishing safety, desensitizing and reprocessing trauma memories, metabolizing and resolving grief/loss and finally, assisting clients in reconnecting to lives full of hope, connection, and achievement.
Jamie is a certified EMDR Therapist and approved consultant through the EMDR International Association (EMDR). She is additionally a member of the American Academy of Experts in Traumatic Stress, the International Association of Trauma Professionals (IATP), and has earned Certification in Disaster Thanatology.
Jamie began her career in social services as a humanitarian aid worker in post-war Bosnia-Herzegovina opening her eyes to the widespread, horrific impact of traumatic stress and grief.
Objectives:
Describe the etiology and impact of traumatic stress on the client utilizing multiple assessment strategies.
Assess a client’s reaction to a traumatic event and make an appropriate diagnosis.
Explain how grief, bereavement, and mourning are accounted for in the new DSM-5®.
Implement interventions to assist a client in dealing with the biopsychosocial manifestations of trauma, PTSD, and traumatic grief/complicated mourning.
Utilize appropriate evidence-based interventions to assist a client in dealing with the biopsychosocial-spiritual manifestations of trauma.
Explain the effects of trauma on the structure and function of the brain.
Post traumatic
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a condition that can develop after experiencing or witnessing a traumatic event. Symptoms include reliving the event through flashbacks or nightmares, avoiding reminders of the trauma, feeling constantly on edge, and feeling detached or estranged. PTSD is diagnosed when symptoms last more than a month and cause significant distress or impairment. Treatment focuses on helping patients process the trauma through exposure therapies and medications to reduce anxiety and depression. Nursing priorities involve ensuring safety, building self-esteem, and teaching healthy coping strategies.
The nature and history of trauma
This document discusses the nature and history of trauma. It begins by defining psychological trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It then outlines the 19th century views of trauma as being due to physical brain damage and the development of PTSD as a diagnosis. The document also discusses the biological pathways involved in the stress response and how they differ in PTSD compared to normal stress responses. Specifically, it describes how in PTSD the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal pathway becomes sensitized leading to decreased cortisol levels and increased cortisol receptor sensitivity. Finally, it outlines the brain structures involved in the stress response, such as the amygdala, hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.
Crisis first aid for traumatic events
This document provides information about trauma, crisis, and their symptoms. It defines trauma as a highly distressing event that overwhelms one's ability to cope. Trauma can be direct (primary) or indirect (secondary). Common responses include physical, emotional, cognitive, and behavioral symptoms like sleep issues, sadness, intrusive thoughts, and avoidance. Most people recover over weeks with support, but some develop long-term disturbances. Crisis refers to an overwhelming reaction when usual problem-solving fails, resulting in disequilibrium. Interventions aim to stabilize the situation and restore pre-crisis functioning. The document also discusses an academic writing course that taught research skills.
Understanding trauma and how to treat it.
A free educational training event was being held for community leaders and members to learn about understanding trauma, its effects, and effective trauma treatment. The all-day event included keynote sessions in the morning and afternoon led by experts on topics like the Adverse Childhood Experience Study, neurobiological changes from toxic stress, and inter-partner violence. Several panel discussions were also scheduled featuring local agencies, survivors of trauma, and professionals discussing trauma in the community and approaches to building a more trauma-informed community.

It argues for approaches that help people develop dialogue with disturbing experiences rather than just suppressing them, and sees potential for extreme states to contribute to personal and social transformation if negotiated successfully.

Grief and Loss in Addiction and Recovery - September 2012
“Grief and Loss in Addiction and Recovery” was presented on September 25, 2012; by Janice Firn, LMSW, Clinical Social Worker, University of Michigan Hospital; Matthew Statman, LLMSW, CADC, Dawn Farm therapist and Education Series Coordinator; and Barb Smith, author of “Brent’s World” (http://compassionhearts.com.) The culture of addiction is rife with experiences of grief and loss for the person with addiction and for family and friends. The nature of these experiences combined with the stigma, shame and general lack of understanding of addiction can make grief and loss associated with addiction exceptionally lonely and difficult to heal from. This program will describe Worden's and Kubler-Ross' theories of grief and grief recovery, losses that the chemically dependent individual and his/her family experience throughout the addiction and recovery processes, and how recovery program tools can help individuals cope with grief and loss. It will include a personal account of addiction-related grief, loss and recovery from a mother who lost her son to addiction-related causes. This program is part of the Dawn Farm Education Series, a FREE, annual workshop series developed to provide accurate, helpful, hopeful, practical, current information about chemical dependency, recovery, family and related issues. The Education Series is organized by Dawn Farm, a non-profit community of programs providing a continuum of chemical dependency services.

What is trauma?
What are some of the ways that you or people you know have experienced trauma?
What is (1) hyperarousal, (2) intrusion and (3) constriction.
What surprised you from the readings?
The systems that give people a sense of control, connection and meaning are overwhelmed.
The incident includes threats to life or bodily integrity, a close personal encounter with violence, or witnessing grotesque death.
The event engenders a feeling of intense fear, helplessness, loss of control, and threat of annihilation.
Trauma often occurs when…
So the healing process must address the reestablishment of control, connection and meaning!

Traumatized persons can lose trust in themselves, in other people, and in God.
The Traumatized Self
Traumatic Stress
PTSD references a “disorder” characterized by symptoms that imply a high level of daily dysfunction which emerges in the wake of a traumatic experience.
Countless untreated people have sub-clinical traumas that do not impinge severely upon their activities of daily living.
The ordinary response to danger entails a complex system of reactions.
Threat arouses the nervous system, causing the endangered person to go into a state of alert.
Concentration on the immediate threat, allows a person to disregard fatigue or pain.
