Extra Info | : | 'Making sense of the symptoms and behaviour of survivors of child abuse who suffer from Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and borderline traits' The field of psychological trauma is a complex and confusing one for therapists particularly when working with individuals who suffer from complex PTSD or developmental trauma. In this workshop Dr de Zulueta will outline how to understand PTSD as an attachment disorder and thereby make sense of its many different manifestations as well as provide a conceptual framework for therapists to use in assessing and treating these individuals. Her talk will be highlighted by clinical examples and she will encourage the members of the workshop to bring up clinical problems they would like to discuss. Dr Felicity de Zulueta is an Emeritus Consultant Psychiatrist in Psychotherapy at the South London and Maudsley NHS Trust and Honorary Senior Lecturer in Traumatic Studies at Kings College London. She developed and headed the Traumatic Stress Service in the Maudsley Hospital which specialises in the treatment of people suffering from Complex Post Traumatic Stress disorder including borderline personality and dissociative disorders. She has published papers on the subject of PTSD and the origins of violence from an attachment perspective and is the author of a book called 'From pain to violence; the traumatic roots of destructiveness' which is used by many training organisations. (2nd edition published by John Wiley and Sons, 2006). Dr de Zulueta now works as a freelance consultant psychotherapist and lecturer and is a Group Analyst with a training in psychoanalytic psychotherapy, systemic family therapy, EMDR and Lifespan Integration and is currently a trainee in Video Interactive Guidance.
