The on-demand professional training program on Self-Regulation Deficits and Trauma in Psycholegal Settings is presented by Jerrod Brown, PhD.

Self-regulation abilities are critical to a diverse range of functions. When self-regulation abilities are compromised, the likelihood of several short- and long-term negative outcomes, including an increased risk of coming into contact with the criminal justice system, may result. One way that self-regulation development and abilities are impeded is exposure to various forms of trauma.

Designed for professionals working in psycholegal settings, this program examines the impact trauma and other forms of adversity have on self-regulation abilities. This program focuses on increasing awareness of the impact trauma has on self-regulation abilities and the implications these topics have on criminal justice, forensic mental health, and legal settings.

Special emphasis is placed on implications for interviewing, screening, intake, intervention, and discharge planning throughout this program. Empirically based research findings and case study examples are highlighted throughout this program.
