Episode notes
Populations That Need RTEP
- Use RTEP especially when working with recent trauma in populations like first responders or short-term crisis intervention clients.
- It is particularly vital after major community traumas, assaults, or ongoing legal situations.
Key Early RTEP Steps
- Begin RTEP with brief history taking focused on assessing client readiness and trauma appropriateness.
- Prioritize containment and safety preparation, especially when sessions are limited and trauma may still be ongoing.
History Taking Focus in RTEP
- History taking in RTEP is about understanding the known traumatic event's personal impact rather than discovering the trauma itself.
- Often practitioners do RTEP with multiple clients who experienced the same event, focusing on individual perspectives.
