Description

This module will detail the neurobiological, psychological, emotional, and survival related aspects of what family members experience in attempting to connect and help a loved one. The long-held industry approach that this is “codependency” can be obscure and not elucidate a clear trajectory for healing. Sometimes the notion of codependency can be interpreted as a way of being that can be changed by mere choice or behavioral change. In detailing the innate neuro-biologically mediated experiences of humans, this module will deliver a foundation for understanding that is beyond a cognitive behavioral approach.

Target Audience
  • Counselors
  • Addiction Counselors
  • Psychologists
  • Social Workers
  • Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists
Educational Goal

The educational goal of the first module is to address how to identify and work towards healing the specific trauma markers in the innate emotion wiring of families in need of healing.

Learning Objectives

At the end of this course, participants will be able to:

  • Explain the three aspects of why anxiety is a part of our survival instinct.

  • Describe how to discuss with clients their innate reflex to “care” as related to anxiety relief.

  • Identify five examples of how clients struggle to discern between comfort and being functional in their relationships.

  • Identify and describe the five manifestations of trauma in families and explain how to approach these adaptations with clients in their clinical practices.
