Description

Trauma shows up in many forms. But not all fit neatly into a PTSD diagnosis.

So if you’ve ever felt uncertain about where a client’s trauma symptoms fit diagnostically, you’re not alone.

That’s why Dr. Caleb Lack put together this 3-hour training, so you can get a clear, comprehensive review of the DSM-5-TR™ trauma and stressor-related disorders category, including key criteria, associated features, and demographic patterns.

Dr. Lack will break it all down, cut through the dense manual pages of the DSM, and explore disorders across the lifespan including PTSD, reactive attachment disorder, Disinhibited Social Engagement Disorder, acute stress disorder and other specified trauma- and stressor-related disorders.

PLUS Dr. Lack will show you how to apply the DSM-5-TR™ in real-world settings and recognize subtle differences between overlapping trauma presentations.

Whether you’re a newer therapist looking for clear guidance or an experienced clinician wanting a smart, time-saving refresher this training is here to help.
