ALL NEW FOR FALL - THE EMOTIONAL DYSREGULATION WORKSHOP: LEARN HOW TO MANAGE AND BETTER CONTROL YOUR RESPONSES
Emotional dysregulation is extremely common in those struggling with Complex PTSD. Tonight, we will provide a supportive environment to learn and practice skills for managing intense emotions and trauma responses. Drawing on evidence-based therapies, we'll focus on building internal safety, understanding trauma's impact on the brain, and developing practical, mind-body coping techniques.
In this all new workshop, we'll explore the following topics in detail:
- We will begin with an explanation of how trauma affects the brain and body. Participants will learn about concepts like the "window of tolerance," flashbacks, and triggers.
- With an emphasis on personal safety, we will explore how the inability to manage emotions can impact self-esteem, confidence, relationships, education, and careers.
- Participants will learn strategies for improving emotional resilience such as those proven using CBT and DBT techniques to improve emotional regulation and stability.
- We'll also cover co-regulation skills, how to use body-based techniques like somatic based healing, and when to seek professional help.
- Getting through an emotional crisis without making things worse using a grounding toolbox method will be practiced.
- The course will conclude with a way to synthesize the techniques discussed in this workshop into daily life.
