In this webinar, Dr. Scott Sells shares: • The four lies perpetuated around social media that kids accept today and lead to addiction: (1) I am the center of the universe; (2) I deserve to always be happy; (2) I must have choice; (3) I am my own authority; and (4) Information is all that matters. • How to recognize an “iFamily” on your caseload and what to do about it. • The top family trauma solutions to combat technology addiction that include safety stressors, technology contracts, software monitoring, and restoring forgiveness and emotional attachment using the Positive Child Report (PCR) technique. With family permission, video case examples from a recorded case virtual consult will be shown.

Research shows that 67% of the population has experienced at least one Adverse Child-hood Experience. These trauma-based adversities are predictive of a multitude of toxic physical, mental and social outcomes through-out a person’s lifetime. As a society and as individuals, we need to be better informed and prepared to prevent and address the traumatic impact of childhood adversities. In this mullti-media, interactive workshop, professionals work together to build a powerful image that helps them appreciate the complex nature of trauma and its aftermath.

Building on information provided in Trauma 101, professionals expand their understanding of trauma and are provided specific skills that enhance abilities to interact in emotionally and relationally healthy ways with people impacted by trauma. As professionals become trauma-aware, they have a responsibility to prevent, avoid and respond to trauma. In this hands-on, interactive workshop professionals are provided opportunities to implement and practice the skills presented.

The emotional and physical cost of being an engaged and empathetic caregiver can be an occupational hazard. Considering the potential impact of vicarious and secondary trauma, compassion fatigue and burn-out, caregivers are provided with critical steps in identifying signs and symptoms of each. Additionally, practical skills and a commitment to self-care are a integral part of this workshop.

Enhancing cultural competence and encouraging cultural humility are essential to increasing access and improving the standard of care for traumatized children, families and communities. Cultural awareness, responsiveness and understanding need to be infused at every level to be effective in addressing the needs of those who have experienced trauma
