Treating trauma from a ‘whole-person’ perspective requires an understanding of the neurobiological functioning that occurs in the nervous system. This presentation will identify these processes and how they impact the treatment of trauma. Along with physiological reactions, there are detailed and specific emotions and beliefs that get stored in the sub-conscious concurrently. For example, shock, anger, self-blame, unworthy, etc. The specific beliefs and emotions that are stored are different based on the type of trauma, either a ‘loss’ trauma or a ‘violence’ trauma. Violence trauma is typically when something is done to the person (not only physical violence), versus a loss where something was taken away or never present that should have been there, in the case of neglect. Treating a loss trauma versus a violence trauma will be compared. This presentation will connect the mind and body components together along with demonstrating a meridian tapping technique to effectively alleviate the symptoms of PTSD and trauma. 

This mental health training combines lecture and interactive exercises to introduce participants to Polyvagal Theory and its practical applications. The course covers the autonomic nervous system's role in emotional regulation, focusing on three core states: social engagement, fight-or-flight, and shutdown. Through engaging discussions and hands-on practice, participants will learn seven calming techniques inspired by Polyvagal Theory, such as breathing exercises, grounding strategies, and methods to activate the body's natural calming processes. These tools help individuals manage stress, enhance emotional well-being, and improve client care.

Through a combination of lecture and interactive exercises, participants will enhance their ability to accurately diagnose and effectively manage ADHD in diverse populations, including children, adolescents, and adults.
