Peter Levine – Peter Levine Phd On Trauma: How The Body Releases Trauma And Restores Goodness
International trauma expert and author, Peter A. Levine, Ph.D. will teach you how sensation-based treatment (as opposed to emotional or rational-based treatment) can be effective for trauma treatment. He discusses the important principles in successful trauma treatment, and uses his own successful renegotiation of a personal traumatic event as an example.
Representing the full scope of his life’s work, Dr. Levine discusses the evolutionary underpinnings of trauma. This recording includes an in-depth review of how trauma is related to the ethnological concept of tonic immobility, as well as the roadmap of the Polyvagal system – a fascinating neurophysiological model for understanding how we shift between the states of fight-or-flight, shutdown, and social engagement. Dr. Levine provides simple containment tools to help you develop your awareness of these state changes in order to more effectively engage your client in trauma therapy.

Articulate the four major developmental stages that increase vulnerability to trauma and how to recognize them in your clients.
Determine the naturalistic mechanics of trauma and survival responses of flight, fight, freeze and collapse as it relates to clinical treatment.
Discover the evolutionary underpinnings of trauma and the Polyvagal theory and their clinical implications.
Demonstrate the importance of “Bottom-up” processing versus “Top Down” processing to improve treatment outcomes.
Summarize the process of how overwhelming stress leads to somatic and emotional syndromes in clients.
Incorporate Dr. Levine’s simple containment tools in order to more effectively engage your client in trauma therapy.
