Remote Learning: Complex Trauma Workshop

This workshop is eligible for Learning Credits/CPD points from The Psychological Society of Ireland and The Addiction Counsellors of Ireland.

Presented online by Kevin Fehin, Senior Clinical Psychologist and Psychotherapist. Among other qualifications he holds a Masters in Psychoanalytic Studies.

This one day workshop will explore how developmental trauma may manifest in adult presentations and provide appropriate interventions to engage with complex trauma. This workshop is open to individuals. The training can also be delivered as in-house training to groups of employees.

This workshop will be delivered live and will allow you to interact with your trainer and other participants in a virtual classroom where, in addition to the workshop content, there will be time built in for live discussions, question & answer sessions and skills practice.

Suitable for those working in psychology, psychotherapy or counselling.

"The content was complex but it was made understandable and relatable. From doing this course it feels clear that trauma is something that affects far more people than it may initially seem in a variety of ways, and that learning about trauma through courses such as this provides the opportunity of potentially far better outcomes for many individuals."

“Kevin presents the material in a clear, understandable, cohesive manner which makes it easy to follow and grasp. Opportunities for participants to ask questions and share their experiences. All contributions were very clearly valued, validated, and expanded on."
