Prolonged Exposure Therapy for PTSD
4-Day Intensive Online Training Workshop – February 20 to 23, 2025

The Centre for Posttraumatic Stress & Anxiety Treatment is pleased to announce a four-day intensive online training workshop in Prolonged Exposure (PE) Therapy for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder.

PE is a manualized cognitive-behavioural treatment for PTSD with an extensive base of empirical support. Numerous controlled studies have shown that PE significantly reduces the symptoms of PTSD in a wide range of trauma survivors. PE is strongly recommended by every major U.S. and international clinical practice guideline for the treatment of PTSD.

Topics covered:
• Assessment, diagnosis and psychopathology of PTSD;
• Empirically-supported psychotherapeutic treatments for chronic PTSD and their comparative efficacy;
• Emotional Processing Theory and its relation to PE;
• Implementation of the components of PE, including psychoeducation, breathing retraining, in vivo exposure to trauma reminders, imaginal exposure to trauma memories, and processing of exposures;
• Identification and management of obstacles to effective emotional processing, including avoidance, over-engagement, and under-engagement;

Video vignettes will illustrate the various components of PE, and participants will have an opportunity to practice selected interventions in pairs during break-out sessions.

Intended audience:
Licensed mental health professionals or those working under the supervision of a licensed mental health professional. Previous training and experience with cognitive-behavioural therapy is strongly advised.

Dates: February 20 to 23, 2025
Location: Online (live) via Zoom
Times: 8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. (Mountain Standard Time)

Join Bespoke Mental Health Canada on Friday February 28, 2025 at 8.00 a.m. – 3.30 a.m. (PT), 11.00 a.m.- 6.30 p.m. (ET) for workshop delivered by Dr. Alicia Meuret on Positive Affect Treatment for Depression and Anxiety.

Can’t attend on that date? Just watch it ‘on-demand’ at a time that suits you.

This workshop will:
1) Provide an overview of the evidence for treating negative versus positive symptoms in depression and anxiety
2) Explain the treatment modules and related techniques of positive affect treatment (PAT);
3) Describe the efficacy and mechanisms underlying PAT for anxiety and depression;
4) Assess the suitability and priority of PAT techniques based on the patient’s reward sensitivity deficits.

Given the growing interest and necessity of treating low positive affect/anhedonia in individuals with depression and anxiety, we hope that attendees will gain a better understanding of how positive affect treatment can be helpful in their clinical practice.

Bespoke Mental Health Canada is approved by the Canadian Psychological Association to offer continuing education for psychologists. Participants who complete this workshop (either live or on-demand) are eligible to receive 6 CE credits.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy can make a significant difference when traditional talk therapy doesn’t provide the needed breakthrough for someone struggling with trauma. It helps clients safely process distressing memories by integrating them into their larger, adaptive memory network, alleviating immediate symptoms and fostering long-term healing.

This EMDRIA-approved, 5-day training course includes updated information and the latest application techniques, allowing you to offer a more comprehensive and targeted approach to trauma treatment and greatly improve client outcomes.
