Extreme Abuse Survivors, Social Security Benefits, and Ethical Practice - Dr. Randy Noblitt and Pamela Perskin Noblitt
Information on Randy Noblitt and His Research
Many trauma survivors have debilitating psychological and physical symptoms that prevent them from maintaining gainful employment. For these individuals the Social Security Administration has programs that can play a critical role in providing for clients’ basic survival needs and autonomy. Unfortunately, the rules that govern this process are complex and confusing. Further, an important contributing factor in SSA denials is that survivors’ health care providers are often unfamiliar with SSA’s requirements which include documentation of symptoms and the limitations they impose along with professional opinions that correspond to Social Security’s definition of disability. This workshop is intended to provide an introduction to SSA requirements for healthcare providers.
Randy Noblitt is a clinical psychologist and professor of clinical psychology at the California School of Professional Psychology (CSPP) at Alliant International University, Los Angeles. He is the principle author of Navigating Social Security Disability Programs: A Handbook for Clinicians and Advocates (2020) as well as Cult and Ritual Abuse: Narratives, Evidence and Healing Approaches, 3rd Edition (2014).

5 Common Mistakes in Trauma Treatment - Dr. Karol Darsa
Trauma treatment is becoming one of the top areas to specialize in. It is important to have proper training to work with unprocessed trauma to achieve good outcomes for clients. The presentation focuses on the common misconceptions of trauma treatment and will discuss effective trauma treatment modalities. It will discuss how trauma treatment has evolved a lot in the last decade, changing the route to accommodate more body-oriented techniques. This includes the importance of gentle and safe trauma treatment, how to treat trauma victims by using an integrative approach and when and how to do trauma memory processing work. The presentation will also discuss case examples from Reconnect Trauma Treatment Center to enhance learning and practice.

Misinformation Campaigns Against Survivors - Neil Brick - 2020 Presentation - PowerPoint
Misinformation Campaigns Against Survivors - Neil Brick - Transcript
Child and ritual abuse survivors and their advocates have been attacked by misinformation campaigns the last several years. These campaigns use various harassment and propaganda techniques to distort the research and silence the efforts of those who are working to help trauma survivors and rape victims. These techniques will be compared to past and present public campaigns that have distorted information and used unethical tactics to manipulate public opinion. Propaganda and suggestion techniques used will be discussed and analyzed.

Identifying the Personality Systems of Mind Control Survivors and Trauma Treatment - Cristina Mardirossian, LMFT
Information on Cristina Mardirossian
Therapists are increasingly starting to see that many of their clients have histories of complex and chronic abuse. The lack of training and education to address dissociative disorders results in therapists feeling unprepared to help their clients. This workshop will address the Identification of Personality Systems in Mind Control Survivors and address Trauma Treatment, from a phase-oriented approach. Trauma treatment is typically viewed within 3 phases. Phase 1 involves stabilization. Suggestions for understanding and coping with flashbacks, self-harm, and programming will be explored here. Phase 2 involves working through trauma memories, and Phase 3 involves integration into life. This workshop will focus on Phase 1 and 2. This workshop is geared towards mental health professionals who are interested in developing their skills in recognizing and treating clients with ritual abuse and mind control.
Cristina Mardirossian is the owner and director of Pasadena Trauma Therapy, Inc.

Organicity and the Inorganic: a Sensorimotor Approach to Healing with RAMCOA Survivors - Will Randle
Therapists, often motivated by a strong desire to alleviate the pain of their patients, tend to have a focus on techniques, skills, and practices that may best do this. This is an excellent practice, with an excellent motivation, and often produces excellent results. However, RAMCOA most often involves a purposeful application of abuse throughout the entirety of the victim’s experience: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. Often, the primary access point for the perpetrator to the victim’s system is the inherent unconditional love experienced by all children. The systemic nature of such abuse often overshadows the skills, techniques, and limitations of traditional therapy. This presentation will explore the therapist’s development of the internal qualities and practices foundational to Sensorimotor Psychotherapy. We will explore the primacy of developing such internal qualities relative to techniques in cultivating the kind of relationship to act as an antidote to the profound injuries of RAMCOA.
