Goals and Objectives

Brief Description:
This course will illustrate, discuss and describe micro activities to increase self-regulation awareness and application through art and creativity, that may be utilized when working with co-morbid disorders of PTSD, Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Addictions. This course offers an expanded knowledge base concerning regulation and attachment issues. With a baseline of this course knowledge, the optimum goal is to integrate creativity to improve regulation and attachment. Attendees will experience hands on, watercolor creations on hungi paper, while interactively discussing its effects on attachment and regulation.
