What Lies Beneath: Navigating the Hidden Depths of Complex Trauma

Trauma is a word that has become very familiar in our current conversation, but there is a lot of confusion surrounding what it means. This is particularly true for the topic of complex trauma, which sometimes even confuses clinicians who are more familiar with the typical post-traumatic stress disorder presentation we see after events such as car accidents or assaults. In this talk, Dr. Colette Smart will draw on theory, research evidence and clinical experience to illuminate the topic of complex trauma— what it is, what causes it and what we know about how people heal. At the end, she will also provide resources that could be helpful if you or someone you know is struggling with the effects of complex trauma.
