Healing Trauma

Cognitive Program

• 

  Description

  This program is designed for working with women in a setting where a short-term intervention is needed. This curriculum promotes a strength-based approach that seeks to empower women and increase their sense of self. In using this kind of model, the facilitator, will help the women in the group see the strengths they have and increase the skills they need for healing. The curriculum also focuses on emotional development. Dealing with the expression and containment of feelings is a critical part of trauma work. This program uses psychoeducational and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques, expressive arts, body-focused exercises, mindfulness, and relational therapy.
