PTSD Client Workbook Training to facilitate trauma recovery in the format of 1-2 day workshops have been developed with Social Workers.  It is  a rare opportunity as observed in  this research.  This workbook is very much designed as an introduction and an ongoing aid for particularly remote or rural clients. People with limited income benefit from being able to work through the material so that the appointments with the counsellor can focus on specific difficulties which the client is empowered to identify more clearly with the help of the workbook.  Less appointments are needed, so less money needs to be found by clients with limited income, but just as much therapy can be achieved because the client gains the information with the workbook.

PTSD Client Workbook Training WORKSHOP

Entitled  “Using a Trauma Recovery Framework and a directive Client Workbook together with counselling ” the workshop will provide General Support Workers and Counsellors with:

• A clear description of the building blocks for trauma recovery
• Insight into the variety of stress responses & an overview of Post Traumatic Stress Symptoms.
• An outline of structured approaches proven to facilitate trauma symptom management and recovery.
• The focus of this PTSD Training to use Client Workbook is to empower the clients with knowledge and a structure to gradually rebuild, and work toward full recovery. 
• Through case scenarios & doing some activities, you will understand how to use the workbook to assist your work with clients’ recovery from trauma – especially in circumstances where limited client contacts are generally the only service offered.

This PTSD Client Workbook Training can be used by any worker involved in the management of a client’s recovery.   You don’t need to be a fully qualified therapist to use this approach to guide clients, especially as you can hand them a workbook where they can read, understand and follow the concepts and activities themselves.
