Program Description:

This training builds on participants having a basic training and working knowledge of the Flash Technique (FT) and is mostly based on the trainer’s own research. The class will cover the theory of FT from a neuroscience vantage point and its practice from a community mental health perspective using scripted protocols. The theory will provide answers to questions such as why FT works without the client cognitively processing the disturbing memory. It answers questions such as whether prompted blinking and bilateral tapping are absolutely necessary or not. The theory also gives an explanation on why processing multiple memories at the same time is possible.

The materials taught in this class can be used for individual clients in the counseling room, for groups in the community, as well as in humanitarian efforts in the field or online. This course will demonstrate the basics of trauma and Flash Technique (FT) intervention, provide attendees with a proven FT scripted protocol, and give a basic understanding of Wong’s model for the Flash Technique.
