Thousand Oaks, CA, USA – Professional Psych Seminars, a private, non-profit educational organization, is now offering an online course called Risky Business: Working with Compulsive and Self-Endangering Behaviors in Trauma Survivors. This online continuing education course can be completed on a PC or MAC computer, a tablet, or a phone. This is a 6.0 continuing education credit course created by John Briere, Ph.D., a Professor of Psychiatry and the Behavioral Sciences at the Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California as well as the Director of the USC Adolescent Trauma Training Center of the National Child Traumatic Stress Network. He is the author of 15 books and 9 trauma-related psychological tests.

About the Risky Business Course

This online seminar offers mental health professionals, valuable tools to treat trauma survivors who are at an increased risk of self-endangering or compulsive behaviors such as self-harm. Many of these behaviors are symptoms of behavioral addictions or personality disorder. Some of the latest research suggests that these are coping responses for childhood abuse or trauma. Dr. Briere uses his new book, Treating Risky and Compulsive Behaviors in Trauma Survivors, to present a new approach to self-endangering behavior, known as the Reactive Avoidance model.

He will discuss interventions including:

• Implicit memory processing
• Mindfulness
• Emotional surfing
• Trigger management
• Emotional regulation training
• Harm reduction

The course costs $119. For a more detailed agenda of the class, email us at [email protected].

Our courses at Professional Psych Seminars are broken down into small segments and after viewing a presentation, you will take a quiz about that section. You can work at your own pace and at the completion of the course, can print out your completion certificate instantly after passing the post-quiz.
