Complex Trauma in Adolescents

Designed for professionals who routinely interact with adolescents in urban settings where the experience of complex trauma may be often overlooked, this six-hour workshop seeks to enhance participants’ understanding of the complicated and difficult-to-recognize clinical presentations of adolescents who have experienced complex trauma and are interacting with multiple service systems. This workshop will also assist participants in differentiating between complex trauma symptoms and more typical adolescent mood and behavioral conditions, and will discuss assessment, engagement and risk management.
