SUMMARY:HRV and Trauma Treatment: Supporting Nervous System Regulation in Refugee Survivors
DESCRIPTION:INTEGRATING HEART RATE VARIABILITY IN TRAUMA TREATMENT: CLINICAL APPLICATIONS WITH TORTURE SURVIVORS\n\n\n\n\nRefugee survivors of torture and trauma often experience profound disruptions to emotional\, physiological\, and psychological regulation following prolonged exposure to violence\, persecution\, displacement\, and loss. These experiences can leave the nervous system in persistent states of hyperarousal\, shutdown\, or instability\, affecting a person’s capacity to feel safe\, connected\, and regulated in everyday life. Supporting nervous system regulation and embodiment has therefore become an increasingly important focus within trauma-informed clinical practice. \nThis Clinical Master Class explores the role of heart rate variability (HRV) in understanding and supporting autonomic nervous system functioning in survivors of complex trauma. HRV offers clinicians a valuable window into regulation\, stress responsiveness\, and recovery\, while also providing practical pathways for supporting emotional and physiological stability through body-based interventions. \n\n\nLEARN FROM EXPERTS IN TRAUMA\, NEUROPHYSIOLOGY AND BODY-BASED INTERVENTIONS\n\n\n\n\nJoin Dr Kasia Kozlowska\, child and adolescent psychiatrist and clinician researcher at The Children’s Hospital at Westmead\, and Melissa Beit\, STARTTS Neurofeedback Counsellor\, as they bring together theory\, neuroscience\, and clinical practice in this highly practical webinar. Dr Kozlowska will provide an expert overview of HRV and its relationship to stress\, trauma\, emotional regulation\, and wellbeing\, including practical considerations for clinical application. Melissa Beit will then present a clinical case from her work with a survivor of the 2014 Ezidi genocide\, demonstrating how HRV training and body-based approaches can support regulation\, reconnection\, and recovery following severe trauma. \n\n\nWHAT YOU’LL GAIN\n\n\n\n\n\nA practical understanding of heart rate variability and autonomic nervous system functioning\nInsights into the relationship between trauma\, stress physiology\, embodiment\, and emotional regulation\nKnowledge of how HRV can be integrated into trauma-informed clinical practice\nAn understanding of body-based approaches that support regulation and recovery in complex trauma\nA real clinical case study illustrating HRV training with a survivor of torture and genocide\nStrategies to support emotional and physiological stability in refugee trauma work\nGreater confidence integrating nervous system-informed interventions into therapeutic practice\nThe opportunity to engage directly with presenters during a live Q&A\n\n\n\nWHO SHOULD ATTEND\n\n\n\n\n\nPsychologists\, counsellors\, psychotherapists\, and social workers\nMental health clinicians working with trauma and complex PTSD\nPractitioners working with refugees\, asylum seekers\, and survivors of torture and trauma\nOccupational therapists\, body-based practitioners\, and neurofeedback clinicians\nYouth\, family\, and community practitioners supporting trauma-affected populations\nHealth and humanitarian workers interested in nervous system regulation and trauma recovery\nAnyone interested in trauma neuroscience\, embodiment\, and trauma-informed care
