This inspiring and helpful online course with Ros Townsend, a highly experienced psychotherapist and trainer who specialises in treating trauma, will give you a thorough, clear understanding of how and why we can be impacted by traumatic events, what is happening in our brains, what causes post-traumatic stress (PTS) symptoms, why we respond in different ways (fight, flight, freeze or shutdown/dissociation), how to help someone who is suffering, when to seek professional help – and more [https://www.humangivens.com/college/post-traumatic-stress-disorder-online-course/#gain]. WHY TAKE THIS COURSE Suffering from trauma, whether from a single incident or multiple events spread over the course of many years, can have a significantly detrimental impact on a person’s mental and physical health, and their quality of life. It can also greatly affect the lives of those around them. Since the Covid-19 Pandemic, more people than usual have experienced extremely stressful, distressing and/or frightening events, and many are finding that it has left them with symptoms of post-traumatic stress which can, in themselves, be very frightening. Recovery is possible – understanding is key Understanding what causes PTSD symptoms, how our brains and bodies react to distressing events and what makes us vulnerable to becoming traumatised, are all key to successful recovery. This knowledge creates a firm foundation on which to build successful coping strategies and clarifies what needs to happen to enable successful self-help and recovery. During the day you will also gain a clear understanding of how to spot the ‘early warning signs’ of trauma, before they go on to affect further areas of someone’s life, which red-flag signs indicate that it is time to seek professional help, and how trauma specialists are able to help people recover, from even the most difficult times, effectively – and lots more [https://www.humangivens.com/college/post-traumatic-stress-disorder-online-course/#gain].

All you need is a quiet place to watch, a computer or tablet and a strong internet signal, the rest is easy. Book your place and we’ll email you confirmation – you’ll receive your Zoom link the day before the event. RECORDING – the training is recorded in case anyone experiences technical difficulties – or you can’t attend on the day – so you will also get a recording for a limited time afterwards to maximise your learning. Want to attend but can’t make this date? Then please register your interest below [https://www.humangivens.com/college/help-young-people-who-self-harm-live-online-webinar/#register-interest] – and we’ll email you when a new date is available. The aim of this live online training with Emily Gajewski, a highly experienced psychotherapist specialising in treating self-harm, is to give you a thorough, in-depth understanding of why young people self-harm and how to approach/react when helping someone in both the short and long term, including the essential skills most likely to effectively support the young person on their journey to find less harmful ways of coping – the webinar focuses on the most evidence-based knowledge and skills in this area. It will also help you find ways of calming yourself in moments of overwhelm to ensure that you can be as supportive and helpful as you’d like to be. WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND With the ever changing, uncertain world we live in creating a vast amount of pressure on children – emotionally and physically – more children and teenagers are experiencing extremely stressful, distressing situations, with many looking for coping mechanisms to help them deal with their negative thoughts, feelings and emotions. Self harm (including self injury) is hugely on the increase and rates are higher than ever since Covid-19 and the long periods of isolation and uncertainty young people have experienced in ‘lock downs’. A survey of 61 secondary school children by charity Place2Be, shows self-harm reports increased by 77%, from 48 to 85, from August to September 2021. Finding the right words to approach self-harming can be difficult – this online webinar was created to help you (parents, carers, teachers) approach this topic with empathy and confidence. Discovering that a young person you are caring for is self harming can be an extremely stressful situation. When we are highly emotional, it can cause us to react in desperate ways, which are often not helpful or supportive to the young person, even if our intentions are totally well-meaning. > “A really helpful, caring approach – it has clarified so much for me and I can > now see a sensible way forward.” > > MARTIN, PARENT. This course is relevant to a range of self-harming behaviours including: * self-injury * cutting, ripping or carving skin * burning skin * punching or hitting themselves * scratching or pinching (including dermatillomania) * poisoning themselves with tablets or liquids (or similar) * over-eating and under-eating (anorexia or bulimia) * biting yourself (dermatophagia) * inserting objects into your body * overdosing, exercising excessively * pulling your hair (trichotillomania) * getting into fights where you know you will get hurt WHAT YOU WILL LEARN * What is self-harm? * Why young people self-harm * How common is self-harming * How to approach the subject (building rapport, trust…) * How to react if your child (or any young person) tells you they are self harming (what not to say and do) * The distinction between self harm and a suicide attempt * The addictive element to self harm * How to help a young person break the addictive pattern * Helping a child in the short- and long term * The influence of social media and peers * Keeping your child safe * Looking after yourself (managing stress, anxiety and worry for the household) * Finding professional help View booking details [https://www.humangivens.com/college/help-young-people-who-self-harm-live-online-webinar/#price] WHO THIS TRAINING IS SUITABLE FOR * Parents, other family members and/or carers of children and young people who are at risk of self harming or currently self harming. * Anyone who works with young people and needs to know how best to help when someone discloses that they self-harm or who they suspect may be self-harming. * Therapists and counsellors who want to gain a better understanding so they can support families with a member who self harms. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- COURSE PROGRAMME The ‘How to help young people who self harm’ live online webinar starts at 9.15am and runs until 1.30pm (GMT). * 9.15am Join the Zoom meeting * 9.30am Understanding self harm * 10.45am Comfort break and discussion * 10.55am How to approach self harm and be most helpful * 12.00pm Comfort break and discussion * 12.10pm Creating the optimal conditions for recovery * 1.30pm Webinar ends -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THIS COURSE HAS BEEN INDEPENDENTLY ACCREDITED BY THE INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNISED CPD STANDARDS OFFICE FOR 3.5 HOURS OF CPD TRAINING.

On this practical live training event you will learn how to tap into your own metaphorical brain to create therapeutic stories and metaphors ‘in the moment’ that are appropriate to each individual’s circumstances and experiences. Throughout the day Pamela – a master storyteller and highly experienced psychotherapist – draws on her own case histories, metaphor and story examples as she guides you through the steps involved in ‘thinking on your feet’ and creating a story yourself in the moment. By the end of the day you will have lots of new, innovative ways to engage with and help distressed children deal with the experiences they have had – whilst also offering them hope, understanding, and new ways of thinking and feeling about life and themselves. Indeed, you may well be surprised at how quickly positive psychological changes occur as a result of the stories you will create and tell ‘in the moment’. Stories also play a crucial role in child development – through the ways the different characters think, act and overcome difficulties, children gain important templates for understanding the world and dealing with the challenges and situations they will meet in life – both now and in the future. They are a wonderful way to help build resilience. Storytelling and the careful use of therapeutic metaphor are crucial elements of successful counselling and psychotherapy – they help bypass assumptions and rigid thinking to offer a new, broader way of looking at things, awaken innate resources and offer crucial hope – just what struggling children need… > Wonderful, interactive online course.
