Single Session Therapy: Overcoming Trauma

Single Session Therapy: Overcoming Trauma

A Solution Focused Approach

A two-day online course with Chris Iveson

Many experts say that resolving post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a long-term process taking week, months or even longer. Experience tells us PTSD can be resolved in a single session. There are many complex theories about PTSD and its impact on the brain; as usual, the more complex the theory the more complex (and longer) the treatment. For the Solution Focused Brief Therapist PTSD is simply the past getting in the way of the future. Our task then becomes to help our client see that future more clearly and trust that the strengths needed to live with PTSD will be more than enough to carry the client into the future they are seeking.

This course will teach you how to help your clients see, and even experience, a future they would love to live and how to look back into their past and discover the history they missed, a history powerful enough to support a new and more fulfilling life.

You will learn by watch videos of actual sessions with clients and by practicing solution focused interviewing in small groups.

Chris has been helping his clients overcome trauma (from abuse, car accidents, medical interventions and any other source) for nearly four decades. He is author of many books and papers on Solution Focused Practice and has an international reputation as a clear, inspiring and entertaining speaker.
