TESTIMONIALS: What Previous Attendees Are Saying...
"Today’s course “Treating Complex Post –Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) was an in depth learning experience delivered in a friendly way. The A.S.I.E.C.C framework for healing and practical tips included were so helpful for anyone working with patients or in a caring environment or anyone wanting to understand their own personal journey to recovery from trauma." Gretsky C., Dental Hygienist and Sports Massage Therapist
"Loved it! This is my second MindBody Breakthrough event. Wale is a great speaker who makes you feel welcome. His knowledge and experience is second to none and I look forward to revisiting the content of the course to use with clients." Heather S., CBT and Emotional Therapeutic Counsellor
"I attended the all day webinar yesterday. I found it really helpful. There was a lot of neurobiology and neuro-chemistry which I really appreciated, that was what I was looking for. There is a lot to digest but I look forward to reflecting on the power point and my notes in due course. I am currently training in Internal Family Systems and hope to do training in sensorimotor psychotherapy and found yesterday's presentation helpful in consolidating my belief in bringing in the somatic. Anyway, thank you for your engaging and knowledgeable teaching." Paula H.
"Another fantastic course. Your presentation is so detailed, informative, and patient. I value the amount of energy you give, and the resources that you offer are so appreciated." Elizabeth F. Sufferer
"Thank you for your brilliant workshop – it has certainly given me some new ways of working and reassured me that I have been correct in staying with trying to stabilize clients before moving into the ‘trauma’." Kate R. Children and Young Person’s Counsellor
"Thank you for an excellent, interesting and informative workshop which was professionally and warmly delivered." Jacqueline A. Counsellor
"Thank you so much for such an excellent, informative and useful online course today. I’ve learnt LOADS!!! :-)" Sarah C.
"Thank you for your informative and insightful compact course, I have done many workshop on the Mind_Body connection, but yours is one of the best so far." Melissa S. Integrative Counsellor
“The course was excellent and well presented. It covered a lot of useful material and has enhanced my ability to identify and work with clients with CPTSD. Usually I would not have been able to attend because the venue is outside London, but because it was online I could. Siata M., Integrative Counsellor
“Lovely webinar! Thank you so much! I learnt a lot from the comfort of my own home and it was actually lovely being able to get up and move to stretch and still listen actively and not get judged for getting up!” Alex A., Senior Physiotherapist
“An enormous thank you for providing such an interesting and informative day on CPTSD. Having previously attended one of your excellent courses I was delighted I could continue my studies from the comfort of my own home. In many ways I preferred it because of the convenience. I am looking forward to attending your next course on OCD as well.” Hazel J., Trainee Therapist
“Thank you for a great webinar. As a practicing counsellor you have built my knowledge on how to assess where a client is in their C-PTSD journey. I feel able to keep myself safe with an understanding of their process and how to support the client on their healing journey.” Sebastian H., Counsellor
"It was an amazing experience today. A comprehensive and informative session that will inform my practice." Kaleena M., Counsellor
PTSD is generally related to a single event, while complex PTSD is related to a series of events, or one prolonged event. A doctor may diagnose complex PTSD if a person has experienced prolonged or repeated trauma over a period of months or years.
Traumas connected to childhood neglect or abandonment seem to be central to the the development of onset c-PTSD. Since complex PTSD is a relatively recent concept, healthcare professionals may instead diagnose another condition due to its variable and complex nature. They may be likely to diagnose borderline personality disorder (BPD). Studies have found 
a substantial overlap between complex PTSD and BPD.
Complex PTSD – A doctor may diagnose complex PTSD if you experienced multiple traumatic events at an early age and lasted for a long time: Symptoms of c-PTSD may include the following:
traumatic flashbacks and re-enactment (feeling like the trauma is happening right now)
intrusive thoughts or images
nightmares
intense distress at real or symbolic reminders of the trauma
physical sensations such as pain, sweating, nausea, dizziness or trembling
feeling as if you are permanently defective or worthless
feeling like nobody can understand what happened to you
avoiding friendships and relationships, or finding them very difficult
difficulty controlling your emotions
feeling very hostile or suspiscious towards the world
regular suicidal feelings.
panicking when reminded of the trauma
disturbed sleep or a lack of sleep
irritability or aggressive behaviour
finding it hard to concentrate – including on simple or everyday tasks
being jumpy or easily startled
self-destructive behaviour or recklessness
other symptoms of anxiety
feeling like you have to keep busy
avoiding anything that reminds you of the trauma
being unable to remember details of what happened
feeling emotionally numb or cut off from your feelings
feeling physically numb or detached from your body
being unable to express affection
using alcohol or drugs to avoid memories
Inability to recall key features of the trauma
Overly negative thoughts and assumptions about oneself or the world
Exaggerated blame of self or others for causing the trauma
Negative affect
Decreased interest in activities
Feeling isolated
Difficulty experiencing positive affect
Irritability or aggression
Risky or destructive behavior
