Workshop Description
​
Many of the symptoms experienced by traumatized individuals are not sufficiently captured by the existing ICD-11/DSM 5 criterion for PTSD, particularly when those symptoms include feelings of shame and guilt, loneliness, social isolation, fear of recrimination, and moral injury. Addressing these specific elements, particularly regarding moral injury, is increasingly important.
Moral injury refers to the psychological distress resulting from events that transgress an individual's moral or ethical beliefs. Compassion-Focused EMDR is an emerging treatment approach for individuals experiencing moral injury. The approach integrates EMDR with compassion-focused techniques to target the shame, guilt, and self-criticism often associated with moral injury and trauma. This presentation explores the core components of moral injury and shame-based trauma using both individual and political case studies, through the lens of the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model. Specific skills within Compassion-Focused EMDR therapy (CF-EMDR), will include CF-EMDR informed case conceptualization, psychoeducational frameworks, trauma regulation strategies, compassion-focused interweaves, and addressing vicarious traumatization and self-care.
​
Learning Objectives
Participants will be able to:
​​​​​​
1. Explain moral injury and shame-based trauma
2. Explain the core components of Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) and how this applies to more vulnerable and complex populations with a specific focus on moral injury and shame-based trauma

4. Demonstrate at least three (3) compassion-focused EMDR techniques to target the shame, guilt, and self-criticism often associated with moral injury/ trauma.
