PSY-5220CCR: Conflict Resolution and Secondary Posttraumatic Stess Disorder (PTSD) and Self-Care Issues for Mental Health Professionals

This course provides participants with an interdisciplinary overview of conflict analysis and resolution. Contending theories and approaches to understanding conflict and resolution processes will be emphasized. Issues impacting causation, escalation, and de-escalation including issues of power, culture, gender, and social location will be considered. Specific methods of analysis and intervention will be applied to relevant case studies. Particular attention will be given to understanding the common roles assumed by the helping professional in conflict resolution (e.g. facilitator, mediator, and advocate) and the deleterious effects of chronic exposure to conflict and trauma including secondary and vicarious trauma and compassion fatigue.
