Understanding post-traumatic stress reactions

Face to Face Recovery College Courses
This workshop is designed for individuals who are experiencing difficulties following traumatic events, including PTSD, and those who support them. If you or someone you care about is struggling with the lasting effects of trauma, this session will help you understand why these reactions persist and teach practical strategies to manage the symptoms.
We hope to create a safe and supportive environment, in which we hope to explore:
Common Reactions to Trauma: Learn about the emotional, mental, and physical responses that can arise after experiencing distressing events.
Coping Strategies: Discover tools to manage symptoms such as flashbacks, anxiety, and sleep disturbances.
Rebuilding Your Life: Gain insights into healing and moving forward after a traumatic experience.
You will not be asked to share personal details of your trauma during the session, but you will hopefully leave with useful skills and a deeper understanding of the path to recovery. Whether you’re directly affected by PTSD or supporting someone who is, this workshop hopes to provide knowledge and resources to help navigate the challenges of trauma recovery.
The course has been developed by clinicians with extensive experience of working with trauma, alongside those who have had lived experience.
