Description |
Trauma First Aide™ was developed as a short-term model to reduce symptoms of acute traumatic stress and to stabilize the nervous system in high arousal and emergency situations. TFA uses an integrative approach to bridge physiology and psychology. Developed by Dr. Genie Everett and her colleagues after working with survivors of the Asian tsunami in Thiland and hurricane Katrina on the Gulf Coast, TFA focuses on trauma education, early intervention, and the reduction/prevention of secondary traumatization and PTSD.
Tuition is $335 ($315 three weeks in advance). 50% discount for students/military/first responders; 20% organizational discount for 3 or more registrants. Visit www.traumafirstaide.com for more information about this valuable technique. Then call us at 952-885-5446 to register for the class.
