A substantial portion of individuals experiencing recent traumatic events suffer from acute traumatic distress, with symptoms of intrusion, avoidance and hyper-arousal, associated with significant impairment in daily functioning. Many will recover spontaneously, but some will go on to develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), a mood disorder, or other psychological and physical disorders, with associated functional impairments. Research suggests the possibility that early intervention, which reduces or eliminates acute distress, may prevent the development of subsequent disorders. As we know, a successful trauma treatment produces significant economic, social and cultural benefits for individuals, families and communities. This online webinar will help learners understand how to respond to crises through early intervention, rapid response and also for prolonged adverse experiences.
