Learning how to navigate clients’ emotional window of tolerance to support stabilization
are key factors in providing trauma-informed care. In this three hour training, Dr. Fatter
will review the impact of traumatic stress on the brain in tangible ways to help clinicians
better conceptualize how trauma alters the body’s arousal system. Dr. Fatter will discuss
in detail symptoms of hyper-arousal, and hypo-arousal states of the autonomic nervous
system. This will help clinicians know signs of what state clients are in and help
clinicians be able to educate clients about their nervous system. Coping skills for hyper-
arousal and hypo-arousal will be demonstrated to provide clinicians with practical tools
to serve their clients.

Learning Objectives:

• Describe four ways that traumatic stress impacts the brain.
• Identify at least two signs of when clients are either hyper-aroused or hypo-aroused in trauma treatment.
• Demonstrate at least three trauma-informed coping skills to help support stabilization and navigate acute distress.​
