This free online course explores various techniques for processing, overcoming and preventing trauma-related disorders. Catastrophic events can cause post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), significantly impacting individuals' emotional and mental functioning, and are a universal concern for healthcare systems. We therefore created this trauma processing course to give mental health professionals and other clinicians the knowledge and skills they need to help patients and clients identify and process traumatic experiences that negatively impact their lives.
