WORKSHOP #7: Proven Interventions for Complex PTSD | PRESENTED BY Carissa Muth, Psy.D., CCC, R.Psych

Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) manifests after exposure to one or multiple extremely threatening or traumatic events, presenting additional severe and persistent symptoms beyond those of PTSD. Dr. Muth’s three-hour workshop delves into the distinct characteristics of CPTSD, highlighting its unique challenges and treatment approaches.

Drawing upon current research, Dr. Muth will elucidate the nuances that differentiate CPTSD from other diagnoses. Participants will gain insights into the impact of disturbances in self-organization, such as negative beliefs about oneself, emotional dysregulation, and interpersonal difficulties, crucial for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment planning.

The workshop will focus on the application of evidence-based interventions tailored specifically for CPTSD. Dr. Muth will explore Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), offering participants a comprehensive toolkit for addressing the complexities of this disorder.

Through a detailed case study of a client with CPTSD and comorbid Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), attendees will learn step-by-step strategies for implementing evidenced-based interventions. Special emphasis will be placed on addressing both disturbances in self-organization and core PTSD symptoms, ensuring a holistic approach to treatment.

Join Dr. Muth in this comprehensive workshop to deepen your understanding of CPTSD and enhance your clinical skills in treating this complex disorder.
