Triple Trouble A Brain-Based Model for Working with Developmental Trauma

Compass Seminars is thrilled to announce a live broadcast webinar with the highly regarded US clinical psychologist, author, and speaker Dr. Jon Baylin.

 For the past 25 years, Dr. Baylin has been studying the neuroscience of developmental trauma while continuing his clinical work with traumatized children and their families. In this webinar he will present his current model for understanding the multiple impacts of early life adversity on a child’s development and his integrative approach to treatment and recovery.

‘Triple Trouble’ refers to a child’s loss of a sense of safety, fragmentation of the sense of self, and suppression of a sense of hope for the future which result from experiences of early life adversity and/or trauma.

Dr. Baylin will explore each of these developmental processes and discuss how such experience impacts brain development and functioning. He will then shift the focus to exploring a collection of promising contemporary interventions which are thought to have a role in “resetting” the balance of core brain networks to support recovery.

•          Neuromodulation (new approaches to neurofeedback)
•          Relational Interventions (including Dyadic Developmental Practice)
•          “Interstate Travel” (different stages of openness) and the polyvagal model for ‘anchoring’ (how it connects to emotion regulation and stateshifting).
•          Resilience or GRIT Training: Shifting from’ fast and furious’ reactivity to ‘slow and curious’ brain processes that access higher brain regions.
•          Newer developments in medication.
