One Type of Trauma That Conventional PTSD Treatment Can Actually Make Worse

How are PTSD and moral injury different?
While PTSD and moral injury might have similar symptoms and presentations, they are not one and the same.
Moral injury is a fundamentally different type of trauma that strikes at the core of a client’s identity.
This is important because there are interventions for PTSD that are contraindicated for moral injury.
But you can be the clinician who finally understands.
- The one who sees beyond the PTSD symptoms to the moral wound underneath
- The one who helps clients accept their guilt without drowning in shame
- The one who guides them back to their values and their humanity
- The one who supports clients in making amends in meaningful ways
But only if you have the specialized knowledge to recognize moral injury and treat it effectively.
That’s why we consulted with 7 expert practitioners to create the short course:

- Some people simply learn better by reading than by listening or watching
- You will be able to print out and share techniques presented in the session with your patients
