Navigating Distressing & Uncertain Times: Recognizing & Regulating Trauma Responses During Ongoing Stress

1-hour webinar; 45 min talk, 15 mins for Q&A

ABOUT THIS SESSION:

During distressing and uncertainty times, and ongoing stress, responses vary widely. For some, there is heightened anxiety or irritability. For others, numbness, distraction, or difficulty concentrating. This session offers a structured space to pause and understand how current events may be affecting you- psychologically, physically, and relationally.

This session will provide:

  • Education on common trauma and stress responses during active stressful events
  • Guidance on recognizing shifts in mood, cognition, and behavior
  • Evidence-based grounding and self-regulation tools
  • Practical strategies to maintain psychological steadiness

This session is suitable for community members who are:

  • Navigating ongoing uncertainty or heightened stress
  • Supporting others during challenging times
  • Seeking practical, research-informed tools to regulate and stay steady
  • Wanting clearer language to understand what they’re noticing in themselves or others
