Integrating Trauma-Informed Care Within Group Counseling, a Chemical Dependency Training Consortium Event
Being able to feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect of mental health; safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives.
Bessel A. van der Kolk, The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma
Goal of Training
In this combined informational and interactive workshop, counselors will learn how to incorporate trauma-informed counseling practices and approaches into their work with substance use and mental health groups. This workshop will cover best practice approaches for three different kinds of groups: Motivational interviewing, relational/process, and cognitive behavioral groups. Participants will learn trauma-informed group leadership skills to increase their competence and confidence when working with trauma issues in group settings. In addition, the training will cover group therapy strategies to address triggers, relapse, and long-term recovery. This is an experiential training, and we invite your participation.

Participants of this training will gain knowledge to:
* Identify SAMHSAs 6 key principles of a trauma-informed approach and trauma-specific interventions,
