Description

Back by popular demand, Youth For Tomorrow (YFT) has invited internationally recognized human trafficking expert Bonnie Martin, MEd, CACS, LPC to join us once again! YFT is providing these CE eligible trainings presented by Northern Virginia Human Trafficking Initiative and The Northern Virginia Human Trafficking Task Force (NVHTTF). We are pleased to offer these exceptional training opportunities to our community once more!

If you attended Ms. Martin's training with us last year, then you won't want to miss her Part 2 Advanced Clinical Training: Treating the Complex Trauma of Human Trafficking on Friday June 9, 2017. This year Ms. Martin will be building upon last year's training with additional case material, skill building, and audience participation (see learning objectives below).

*** If you have not attended one of Ms. Martin's SERVE Model trainings previously (or just want a refresher) don't worry! You can still attend Friday's all-day training, but you will first need to attend the 3-hour Part 1 introductory course on the SERVE Model Thursday evening June 8, 2017.

Bonnie's Part 1 introductory course on the SERVE Model covers the important neurobiology and attachment theory foundations of complex trauma. It is her practice not to offer her Part 2 Advanced Clinical Training to those who have not first received Part 1, so please come join us on Thrusday evening if you still need the introductory course!

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

THURSDAY EVENING:

Part 1 Introductory Training (3 CE hours)

This training will examine the importance of a brain-based approach in enhancing the outcomes of working with clients who present with symptoms of complex traumatic stress. The role that brain function plays in mood, memory, and behavior will be identified. Special consideration will be give to brain development in childhood and adolescence, and how coping mechanisms for abnormal stress become maladaptive.

  • Explain how the fast and slow tracks to the amygdala play a role in the trauma involved in human trafficking.
  • Understand how brain-based treatment affects different parts of the brain to ameliorate depression, anxiety disorders and traumatic stress.
    • Describe the role that attachment plays in the development of affect regulation and mood disorders and how violence, traumatic stress, abuse, and neglect impact brain development, personality development and physical development.
    • Explain why the future of treatment necessitates a dynamic understanding of the brain when providing direct victim services.

FRIDAY:

Part 2 Advanced Clinical Training (6 CE hours)

Using a synthesized model of neuroscience, attachment theory, and evidence-based treatment, you will learn how to more effectively treat the complex traumatic stress associated with human trafficking. A particular focus on how coping mechanisms for abnormal stress become maladaptive and how certain aspects of traditional theoretical approaches may be counter-therapeutic in the treatment of complex posttraumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) will be explored. Practical treatment implications and tools will be learned for immediate use in therapy.

  • Apply practical prevention and intervention for Autonomic Nervous System Dysregulation
  • Describe the relationship between trafficking and substance abuse and implications for treatment
  • Apply TRIGGER-THOUGHT-FEELING-RELAPSE and Recovery timeline to client relapse behaviors
  • Identify Cognitive Distortions and Utilized Needs Inventory for emotional regulation
  • Apply Spirit of MI to interrupt the Betrayal Bond
  • Construct treatment plan utilizing BASE and SEEDS to increase cognitive ability and emotional stability.
  • Demonstrate how to SERVE clients through:

Symptom normalization

Education of the brain’s stress response

Regulation of autonomic nervous system and thought processes

Validation of anger and grief

Empowerment of fully integrated self
