DESCRIPTION
A 26-credit/hour, 180 question CE program based on the book:
Handbook of PTSD: Science and Practice (3rd ed.)
N
ow in an extensively revised third edition with 65% new material, this is the authoritative reference on posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Contributors examine the breadth of current knowledge on the mechanisms by which stressful events can alter psychological processes, brain function, and individual behavior. Risk and protective factors across development and in specific populations are explored. Reviewing the state of the science of assessment and treatment, the volume covers early intervention and evidence-based individual, couple/family, and group therapies. Conceptual and diagnostic issues are addressed and key questions for the next generation of researchers are identified.
Target Audience
Psychologists | School Psychologists | Marriage & Family Therapists | Mental Health Counselors | Social Workers

Learning Objectives
Apply the findings of current research on PTSD to the development of best clinical practices for treatment.
Compare the current diagnostic criteria for PTSD with previous conceptualizations of the disorder, and how PTSD achieved diagnostic status at the time of its inclusion in the DSM-III.
Compare differences and similarities in the prevalence and distribution of trauma and trauma-related disorders across different populations.
Compare the major psychological models of PTSD.
Discuss research findings regarding information- processing biases in the context of emotionally relevant information to predict the course and treatment outcomes of PTSD.
Discuss issues that need to be considered in defining dissociation, such as distinctions between continuum vs. taxon, state vs. trait, and detachment vs. compartmentalization.
Summarize the impact of neurocircuitry and neuroplasticity on an individual’s stress tolerance and response.
Discuss the pathophysiology of PTSD both in terms of brain regional activity and connectivity as well as the array of highly variable underlying molecular mediators and moderators.
Discuss the implications of twin, molecular genetic, epigenetic, and gene expression studies on the development and course of PTSD.
Identify the contributions of post-mortem brain tissue analysis to the understanding of the genes, pathways, and transcriptomic organization in individuals with PTSD.
Discuss gender issues regarding trauma exposure, traumatic stress reactions, and treatment of PTSD.
Analyze the literature that has emerged over the last 35 years on the impact of traumatic events on child development.
Summarize the epidemiology of trauma and PTSD in older adults.
List the most commonly occurring comorbidities with PTSD, and apply current research in how to treat PTSD when these comorbidities are present.
Identify the challenges of assessing PTSD in children, and discuss the current status of evidence-based psychosocial treatments developed and tested for children and adolescents with PTSD.
List the different levels of intervention after mass trauma.
Summarize the major PTSD clinical practice guidelines.
Identify the elements of couple/family interventions that are pertinent to the treatment of PTSD, and discuss the implications of empirically supported findings to the treatment of PTSD.
Compare methodological considerations for a variety of group treatments with special attention to the limits of generalizations.
Discuss the association between trauma and physical health through psychological, biological, attentional, and behavioral mechanisms.
Analyze and discuss research related to refugee, asylum, and post-conflict mental health.
Review, analyze, and apply the forensic implications of PTSD criteria in both the DSM-5 and ICD-11.
