Clinical Consultation / Training
Clinical Consultation for trauma-focused therapy online and in Long Beach, California
Your clients present to treatment with a history of trauma and PTSD symptoms, but they aren’t improving in the way you would hope. Some clients have been in therapy for a while, but they aren’t making the gains you anticipated, and their PTSD symptoms haven’t reduced or resolved. You’ve heard about a variety of treatments for PTSD, and you’re wondering if another approach may be more effective in easing your clients’ suffering.
How do I become a trauma-focused therapist?
You finished school and clinical training a while ago, and you aren’t sure when to begin when learning new treatment modalities. Research supports Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approaches for the treatment of post traumatic stress disorder, including several approaches that directly target trauma memories and symptoms of emotional and behavioral avoidance. Clinical consultation and/or training can provide an opportunity to learn new treatment modalities that can improve your clients’ outcomes, as well as fine-tune your clinical skills to promote recovery from trauma/PTSD.
Can consultation help me learn trauma-treatments?
You want to offer your clients the best possible treatment outcome, and you’re looking for an experienced clinical consultant. Working with trauma and PTSD can be an overwhelming experience; however, consultation with an expert in trauma-focused therapy can provide you with the tools and resources that you need to confidently provide trauma-focused treatment. Clinical consultation may include training in evidence-based treatments for trauma/PTSD; reflection on your own experiences, biases, and assumptions that may impact treatment; and discussion of case presentations to clarify treatment goals and refine skills in implementing trauma-focused treatment.
