About the event
Differentiating Between Acute Trauma, PTSD, and Complex PTSD: How Differential Diagnosis Shapes Effective Treatment
Trauma doesn’t present the same way in every client—and understanding the differences between acute trauma, PTSD, and complex PTSD can dramatically influence how we conceptualize cases and guide treatment.
Join us for a conversational Ask the Expert session with internationally recognized trauma specialist Dr. Arielle Schwartz as we explore the nuances of differential diagnosis, the clinical implications of each presentation, and how greater diagnostic clarity can lead to more effective, individualized care.
Drawing from her groundbreaking work in trauma recovery, Dr. Schwartz will share insights from her Resilience Informed Therapy model, integrating EMDR, somatic psychology, mindfulness, relational psychotherapy, and Polyvagal Theory into a compassionate, strength-based approach to healing. Bring your questions and gain practical wisdom you can immediately apply in your clinical work with clients navigating trauma, PTSD, and complex PTSD.
