IN PERSON: This course explores how trauma reshapes both the brain and the body, and how healing is possible. Through a combination of lecture and guided discussion, we will examine the impact of post-traumatic stress as well as various sources of traumatic experiences, including abuse, neglect and inherited family trauma. Together we’ll explore how traumatic experiences leave lasting imprints on our physiology, behavior and relationships. We’ll also trace the history of trauma research, from early insights to current breakthroughs in neuroscience and psychology. A range of treatment approaches will be introduced, including both traditional and emerging therapies aimed at recovery and resilience. Whether you're seeking to better understand your own experiences or support others, this course will provide you with a thoughtful and research-based foundation for understanding trauma and the pathways to healing. | Facilitated discussion.
