This comprehensive training guide will help you understand the importance of being prepared and competent to deal with post trauma anxiety scenarios, among both your colleagues and clients.
Many people experience traumatic events at some point in their lives, ranging from personal crises, work-related accidents or large scale disasters. Such incidents can lead to various mental health issues like post-traumatic stress disorder, or its subset, post trauma anxiety.
Post trauma anxiety is characterized by intense, uncontrollable worry following a traumatic event. The person may feel agitated, restless, or on edge. It disrupts their daily functioning, impacting relationships and performance.
Given the prevalence of traumatic events and resulting anxiety, there's an increasing need for trained professionals who can guide and support those impacted. These professionals play a crucial role in enabling affected individuals to re-establish a sense of control and resume normal activities.
Now, let's jump into the training process!
