Bessel van der Kolk in Melbourne, March 28 & 29

Bessel van der Kolk, M.D was recently in Melbourne, conducting a two day workshop entitled 'Frontiers of Trauma Treatment'.  He is described as an ardent pioneer and worldleader in the research and treatment of trauma informing new ways of treating clients suffering multiple psychologoical traumas (complex trauma).  He spoke about the use of body therapies such as psychodrama and the use of yoga as being effective for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder.  Here he is posing in front of one of his powerpoint presentations.
