TRM® Level 2

The Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM)® Level 2 training explores the concept of resiliency and how to restore balance to the body and the mind after experiencing traumatic or stressful events. Level 2 training reviews the skills from Level 1 training and discusses in greater depth working with trauma reprocessing with the survival responses and how attachment theories are applied to TRM®.  Implicit memories are explored in greater detail using the SENSIMAP.  In addition, the expressive arts will be integrated into the training to demonstrate expanded ways to utilize TRM® skills. 

Prerequisite: TRM® Level 1.
