‘The Impact of Psychological Trauma on the Brain’
12 September 2023. Online workshop. Click here to register.
Traumatic experiences can have detrimental implications to both ones physical and psychological well-being. This online workshop, will give delegates a stronger foundation of knowledge into the physical and psychological responses to trauma. Delegates will be better able to identify impacts of trauma, understand the biological and psycho-social basis to trauma and be able to apply their learning into their roles by tailoring their approach and service provision accordingly. The webinar will not upskill delegates on trauma recovery interventions, rather build their base knowledge to apply in their roles.
This three-hour workshop will be delivered by Dr Heather Sequeira, founder and Director of PTSD Trauma Workshops and developer of the PTSD Masterclass; an innovative BPS Approved Workshop for clinicians and therapists in PTSD. Heather has current experience in NHS, is a honorary Senior Research Fellow at University of Birmingham. Prior to training as a psychologist, her background was in academic trauma and PTSD research. Heather conducted her PhD (University of London) in the field of psychological trauma. She held the post of Senior Research Fellow (St Georges, University of London) and published the first controlled studies in the impact of abuse on people with learning disabilities. Heather has a range of research interests and is currently assisting with a project on sleep in female veterans with trauma exposure.
