Participant Feedback:
Most Valuable Aspect:
The relationship between trauma and addiction and the length of time it can surface after trauma.
Understanding brain responses and anatomy.
The integration of different knowledge, case studies, research and mindfulness. Information on brain processing.
Lori’s approach to this topic.
Understanding that effects can be see 9 years later; seeing ages when drug use starts.
Information on role of brain and development on trajectory of addiction.
All information was valuable, ability to correct information to my practice.
Linking trauma experience to addictions.
Reasons why drug addicts become addicted. Client examples.
We can support children (all) and provide a calm environment and resiliency skills in the early years.
We always do not need to know the answers, listen. Reminder for me that all our moms love their children and they love them too, can’t forget that.
Relating the information to past client experiences as well as your own. Information as to statistics towards addictions-understanding timelines of trauma and outcomes.
Discussion about the relationship of substance abuse and trauma was very helpful.
Not to talk about the substance but digging deeper to why they are coping that way.
How our own roles can impact the lives of our participant’s children, we can make a difference.
Appreciate how theory and practices are integrated.
Can incorporate into existing knowledge.
Talking with other participants.
Activities, poems, mindfulness threaded through presentation.
Presentation of information finally coming into mainstream.
All of it.
The statistics presented.
I can’t pinpoint one thing; it was all so informative and well done.
Very helpful and motivating.
Creating awareness of how addiction and trauma correlate
How trauma, addiction, and the brain are included together and how we need to treat the trauma to treat the addiction.
Very interesting presentation thank you.
Neurobiology of addictions and attachment. Very excellent!
Neuroscience.
Comments:
Fantastic training-motivating to learn more.
Loved the experiential examples.
Information was great. Much of it I am already familiar with due to my role I addictions therapy, but still fair amount of new information—great. I learned a lot of new information that will definitely help with my clients.
Treat the trauma not the addiction. Awesome stuff.
Excellent presentation, great information shared amazing information-could listen to you all day.
Felt like the information was heavy and took me awhile to absorb, not sure if I needed more time with it or just the way I was feeling.
Thank you, you have made this tough topic a real pleasure to know about and help those who struggle.
Presentation is a good example of the lives the participants we serve have gone through.
It provided a better understanding, totally makes sense the impact the women’s lives have had with the early childhood.
Very Helpful.
A lot of good information, hoping for more practical hands on but understand the limits of time.
Excellent facilitation, great energy, enjoyed presentation’s materials.
