This specialization explores the psychological and physiological aspects of complex mental health conditions, focusing on trauma-related, somatic symptom, eating, and sleep disorders. You will analyze how trauma shapes conditions like PTSD and dissociation, and how somatic symptom disorders disrupt the seamless connection between the mind and body. The courses also cover the impact of eating disorders and sleep conditions, such as bulimia, anorexia, insomnia and narcolepsy, on overall health. Throughout the program, you will gain a foundational, research-based understanding of how these challenges manifest and the scientifically supported treatment frameworks used to address them.
