    Description

    The silence, secrecy and shame linked to Trauma and / or childhood sexual abuse reduces the capacity for reflective functioning and ability to speak the unspeakable. 

    This reduces the processing of traumatic experiences and our client’s ability to integrate these. As a consequence, the trauma remains outside of conscious awareness, and gives rise to a range of concomitant trauma symptoms including hyperarousal, intrusive memories, flashbacks, dissociation, deleting the body and somatisation. These impact not on only on psychological well-being but also on our client’s physical well-being.

    This training will look at:

    - the range of somatic markers that are commonly seen in survivors of complex trauma and childhood sexual abuse and identify how the body remembers

    - how trauma impacts on the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system and the manifestation of a range of associated physical illnesses including type II diabetes, heart disease, unexplained illnesses, chronic pain, impaired autoimmune functioning, chronic fatigue syndrome, ME and fibromyalgia, as well as self- harm and somatised emotions

     how, through dissociation, survivors delete their bodies and the myriad ways this impacts on sexuality and sexual functioning

     how practitioners can enable survivors to restore control over their bodies and reclaim their sexuality.
