2021 Conference

January 2021

21 | 22 | 23

The study of trauma has made it clear that traditional therapeutic approaches (e.g. psychotherapy, psychopharmacology) are often not sufficient to alleviate the symptoms stemming from a trauma history. This knowledge is of particular relevance as we face the challenge to help millions of people who will need to recover from the impact of the Covid-19 epidemic.

This conference will present research into the effects of trauma on the body and the brain as well as psychophysiological interventions that are being shown to have a positive impact on these effects. Participants will leave the conference with a better understanding of the neurological and physiological underpinnings of trauma symptoms, as well as a knowledge of particular therapeutic interventions that can be considered when helping those with a trauma history.
