Resilience skills can improve performance under stress, facilitate recovery from traumatic injury, and promote adaptation across the lifespan. Resilience training improves mental health and helps prevent mental illness. Given the troubling rates in high-risk populations of PTSD, depression, anxiety, suicide, violence, and substance use disorder, the need for resilience training has never been greater.
This course will discuss factors in stress resilience and how early development in becoming more resilience can influence and effect coping skills later in life. Resilience trainings models and positive psychology will be explored with a view toward primary prevention and training. This workshop is designed for all professionals and individuals in the community to learn how to increase resilience in the workplace, schools, professional or personal life.
