Description:

We all are challenged from time to time with an acute traumatic incident, e.g., pandemic, assault, divorce, natural disaster, accident, sudden loss of a loved one, etc. While just talking with a 'supportive ear' often helps the survivor work through the experience, at times talking is not enough - the survivor is still 'living it.' In those situations, more focused interventions may be necessary.

Critical Incident Desensitization Protocol (CIDP) and Acute Traumatic Incident Protocol (A-Tip) utilizes bilateral eye movements to help desensitize the survivor to the traumatic event to the point where talking about it may be of help.

Research has shown that bilateral eye movements rapidly diminish the vividness of images and the strong emotions/physical sensations associated with a traumatic event.

Target Audience:

Direct staff, school personnel, case workers, medical personnel, social workers/MFT/psychologists, first responders including: military, EMT, ER staff, firefighters, police officers, highway patrol, and anyone who works with victims of crime, natural disasters, assaults, death, accidents and provides crisis intervention services.

Workshop Objectives

Upon completion of this workshop, participants will be able to:

- Understand the neurobiology of trauma Understand the rationale for the CID protocol

- Understand the rationale for the A-tip protocol

- Demonstrate the CID protocol

- Demonstrate the A-tip protocol

The session will cap at 24 individuals, to maximize interaction and value for each. Zoom instructions will be sent a couple of days before the date of workshop.
