In this course we will read and talk about PTSD which stands for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder as one of many shapes of Traumatic Stress.
The chosen topic is important because there is a lot of specific moments when we work with children and their families after trauma such are war, seige and oppresion. I would like to help you understand those moments in behaviour which require our professional response and knowledge, and are often hidden from our point of view. I hope you find it interesting and educational.
Course includes five lessons:
- The first discusses elemental things about PTSD (what it is in
psychological criteria, shapes of PTS spector and its symptoms and at least
influences and consequences in one's behaviour).
- The second is about prevalence of PTSD (especially between children and
people living in Palestine and elsewhere in the Middle East), what are the factors
of risk and what are the protective factors for developing PTSD and also about
resiliance as an answer to traumatic stress. It includes also some relevant
points about culture in general, its factors which influence everyday life and
how it is connected to mental health.
- The third discusses a professional point of view as is diagnosing and
assessing PTSD and it is also about tools which are intended for proffesionals
to help them with an assessment.
- The fourth is about concrete approaches for working with PTSD
survivors, we will look at some interventions and their usefulness and we will begin
to talk about treatment (why and how). More content about treatment is in last
lesson.
- The fifth lesson is continuing with the disscusion about different ways of
treating PTSD. I will present the most recognizable formal and informal ways of
treatment but there is still a lot of space to disscus about all the existing
ways of treatments which are used by proffesionals and other social workers.
