Training In CBT & Other Evidence-Based Psychological Therapies
Introduction
Trauma is very common in the lives of those who seek help for emotional difficulties. One of the possible presenting problems that may arise is posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Understanding the impact of traumatic experiences, and accurately identifying PTSD, are important in ensuring that people are offered the most appropriate treatments. Within primary care services the initial assessment or triage is commonly brief and this inevitably presents challenges.
The event will be equivalent to 1.1/2hrs of CPD.
