Attachment and Trauma Workshop in Practice – Level 3

Description

The level 1 training supported our understanding of attachment and trauma. Level 2 provided a formidable compendium of international OT’s supporting us in the assessment of attachment and trauma. Level 3 focuses on small group participation, discussing case studies on a deeper level. Additional theory and discussion on the deeper impact of trauma and attachment will be provided.

The bulk of each session will be discussing the participants’ own case studies. A PowerPoint template will be provided to support the participants’ sharing of information. At the end of the series, participants will be scored according to a rubric. The emphasis will be on growing edges, not on passing/failing. Once Level 3 is completed ATTACh will acknowledge full completion of the certificate training. 

Note: Registration is limited to12 persons per group and will be filled on a first come, first served basis.
