Course Description:
Survivors of trauma and early attachment disturbance are at risk for behaviors such as suicidality, self-injury, substance abuse, indiscriminate sexual activities, compulsive stealing, and binge eating.  Calling on his new book, John Briere presents a nonpathologizing approach to self-endangering behavior that directly targets the memory/emotional dysregulation dynamic with interventions such as relational memory processing; and harm reduction.
