Integrative Medicine and Nutrition for PTSD and Complex Trauma by Leslie Korn Institute for Integrative Medicine
Description:
Trauma is the quintessential mind, brain-body dis-ease. This program provides a roadmap for integrating treatment methods for clinicians working in either mental or physical health disciplines or those seeking to integrate both. The course also bridges theory and application of trauma treatment for clinicians who currently integrate nutrition and advanced integrative approaches into their treatment roadmap by advancing their current interventions. The program enhances skills required to collaborate and make referrals across diverse disciplines.
Participants build a toolkit of clinical interventions supported by evidence-based research that enables them to apply integrative medicine and nutritional methods to treat acute and chronic PTSD, Complex and Developmental Trauma and Traumatic Brain Injury in adults and children.
This certification addresses differential diagnosis, co-occurring diagnosis, and mislabeled diagnoses, co-occurring disorders, medical, trauma, war and accidental trauma, the ACE’s and includes assessments, a basic review and referral for genomic psychopharmacology, neurotransmitter and hormone imbalances, food sensitivities, and environmental exposures.
This is an intermediate program for all mental health professionals.
