CC 675 - Assessment and Treatment of Adults with Traumatic Disorders


Prerequisite(s):  CC 527  and CC 670 . Students in this course will be guided by a philosophy of “trauma-informed care” to support development of knowledge and skills in current methods of assessment and treatment for traumatized adults. Students will learn how to identify signs and symptoms of trauma that manifest in the psychological, social and physiological realm. Specific methods of evidence-based treatment appropriate to the varied ethnocultural and other contextual settings and circumstances of adults are considered within the framework of individual, family and group therapy. Attention will be paid to the personal and professional development of the therapist, with emphasis upon the prevention of secondary traumatization and burn-out. (3 credits)
