Complex trauma is a devastating condition. For many clients, recovery is slow, and for others, non-existent.
Prolonged trauma causes clients to be out of physiological, biological, and psychological balance, leading to many problems, including anxiety, depression, and a range of physical health issues.
Many psychotherapy approaches address both the mind and body, but the psychotherapy field as a whole has yet to appreciate the multitude of complementary and alternative health approaches that help heal trauma.
This 90-minute video with Dr. Leslie Korn provides an overview of evidence-based integrative health methods for addressing trauma and explains how expanding your knowledge about these holistic methods can help your clients heal trauma more effectively.
