Webinar Series

3 webinars, all dealing with the Neurobiology of Trauma

The impact that trauma has on the brain is a science that is still in its infancy. However, we already know a lot about how trauma can affect a crime victim's capacity to communicate and form relationships with others, and their ability to process information, remember and learn. This impact can vary widely, and for many, the psychological, behavioral and physical health challenges can last a lifetime. Professionals who work with crime victims are embracing trauma-informed approaches in their work, and understanding the neurobiology of trauma is an important part of this.

This series of webinars will take us to the cutting edge of the research that is being done on the neurobiological effects of trauma. The presenters will share their clinical and research experience with an eye to empowering the many professionals who interact with crime victims. They will identify the behaviors and issues that manifest as a result of different kinds of trauma, and suggest strategies to better assist with crisis management, healing and recovery. The series will also educate those who investigate crimes on interview techniques and how to better work with traumatized victims.

The Neurobiology of Sexual Assault

LEARNING GOAL: Law enforcement personnel will learn about the neurobiology of trauma and its application to victims of sexual assault. Participants will learn how trauma affects victims' emotions and behavioral presentations. Special attention will be given to examining how the brain processes and recalls traumatic events. Law enforcement personnel will learn how to apply these concepts to sexual assault investigations.

Performance objectives:

  *   Participants will become familiar with national data regarding sexual assault reporting and sexual assault case attrition

  *   Participants will understand common reasons why victims withdraw from the criminal justice system process and how this can be prevented

  *   Participants will understand how sexual assault case attrition is related to the neurobiology of trauma

  *   Participants will become familiar with neurobiological structures and physiological processes involved in traumatic events

  *   Participants will learn which specific neurobiological structures and physiological processes are involved in sexual assault

  *   Participants will learn how trauma affects victims' emotions and behavioral presentations

  *    Participants will learn how trauma affect memory encoding and recall

  *   Participants will learn how common interviewing techniques, such as REID may be inadvisable with victims of trauma

The Neurobiology of Trauma-Practical Implications

When people experience trauma, their brain function can be severely impacted. Understanding what trauma does to the brain, and the ability of trauma victims to cope with stress, learn, remember and relate to others, is critical for those working with victims of abuse.

Part One of this webinar will provide a basic understanding of how the brain can be damaged by, and adapts to cope with, traumatic stress. We will examine how trauma can manifest itself in a range of behaviors.

Part Two will show how an awareness of these biological processes related to trauma can translate into practical approaches for those who work with trauma victims - approaches which can serve the wellbeing of providers and victims alike.

Forensic Experiential Trauma Interview (FETI)

This webinar will explain how to apply the science of memory and psychological trauma to enhance trauma interview approaches and techniques. Traditional training in this area focused on the explaining the impact of trauma on the "higher functioning" portions of the brain. However, research in the field demonstrates that these portions of the brain are not generally involved in experiencing and reacting to trauma. Adapting the principles used in critical incident stress debriefing and also the empathy-based techniques developed for forensic child interviews, the FETI process was developed to instead engage the 'lower functioning' portions of the brain. This technique reduces inaccuracy of the information provided and increases the likelihood of understanding the totality of the experience.
