Bottom-Up Strategies for Working at the Intersection of Trauma and Neurodivergence
Presented by: Linda Thai, LMSW
Date: Saturday, November 16, 2024
Time: 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM (Registration opens at 8:30 AM)
Location: Virtual on Zoom
We will start with the impact of acute and chronic perceptions of threat on the nervous system. We’ll look at how the psyche adapts to create future-oriented survival strategies that guide responses in the present, how that turns into autonomic nervous system dysregulation, and how it can present in various DSM diagnoses. You’ll gain a perspective that depathologizes and destigmatizes the symptoms and experiences of clients so you can reframe the ways in which nervous system dysregulation may be expressed as mental health symptoms.
We will then pivot towards numerous, simple, effective, practical ways to apply this knowledge to bring stabilization, resourcing and regulation – for yourself as well as for your clients.
The second segment of this course will cover the five common sensory systems and the three hidden sensory systems. We’ll discuss sensory differences and preferences, Sensory Processing Disorder, and the confluence between sensory system differences, ADHD, Autism and complex developmental trauma. You’ll have a working knowledge of sensory differences,the intersection of trauma responses, and innate differences in neuro-processing.
