Gain a better Understanding of Psychological Trauma with Training

Medical professionals play an integral role in providing patients with the best medical advice or treatment to provide comfort and aid for their respective condition. Patients naturally place their complete trust and reliance upon medical professionals, such as doctors, dentists and mental health counsellors, to provide the best confidential treatment. It is therefore of paramount importance for medical professionals to adhere to the strict codes of conduct and practice outlined by their practice and Government policies.

Within fields such as mental health, the importance of being aware of the implications, thought processes and general actions of patients who have experienced psychological trauma is essential. Professionals must understand the serious nature of trauma which can leave patients feeling depressed, emotionally scarred or suicidal. Additionally, they must obtain or be able to utilise the correct skills to help patients recover from incidents which have caused distress or pain in their life.

Enrolling onto EMDR workshops can allow mental health professionals to gain an extensive understanding of how to handle psychological trauma patients and ensure they play a key role within their recover. Through each workshop, medical professionals are educated on trauma via theoretical and practical-based demonstrations to show each stage of the treatment process and how they play a pivotal role in a patient’s recovery.

Throughout EMDR workshops, medical professionals work towards achieving a certificate of completion which can lead to further training to obtain full accreditation. From there, medical professionals are both fully skilled and qualified to carry out Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) to treat patients with psychological-based trauma. Such form of PTSD treatment focuses on the reduction in the intensity of distressing feelings and thoughts via specific eye movements which influence how the brain functions.

Undertaking EMDR training can not only allow medical professionals to gain a firmer understanding of psychological stress and trauma, but be competently able to help patients in removing the stress and pain via a healing process that has a positive long-lasting effect.
