A 6 hour training event with Rev. Dr. Beverly Prestwood-Taylor & Kevin Lambert  

8:30am – 4:00pm on November 13, 2020

 

This training is remote only!


PRESENTATION: This workshop will provide an introduction to the definition, identification and treatment of moral injury. We will define moral injury from multiple perspectives, identify the context, and differentiate between Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, moral injury and other kinds of soul wounds. We will identify the role of shame and describe several methods of treating moral injury.  Additional resources will be provided. U.S. Army veteran Kevin Lambert will integrate his knowledge with his own experience of moral injury and his healing path. As a result of this training, participants will:

  • Define and describe moral injury and differentiate it from traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress and other soul wounds;
  • Understand the role of shame, the hidden nature of moral injury and the challenges for healing; and
  • Learn several approaches to healing moral injury and the benefits and challenges of each.
