As a doctoral student, it is vital to go beyond learning about topics and moving to synthesis, integration, and application of learning. In this course, the learning focuses around current empirically supported treatments of trauma, but this final presentation moves the learning to your own integration of this learning as it impacts your own theory of counseling. The presentation also allows for expression of future application of this learning to offer a rich and dynamic demonstration of the learning you have done with these empirically supported treatments and specifically how this learning has impacted your trauma focus in counseling.In this assignment, you will synthesize the learning from the course and present an empirically sound personal theory of counseling with a trauma focus. You can present this theory with a presentation style that best fits where you are in your professional journey—whether licensed, pre-licensed, or in the teaching phase of your career.For the Discussion Thread: Presentation, you will have 3 options, which are listed on the Discussion: Presentation Assignment Instructions below.Please refer to the specific instructions for each option to create your presentationFor any required references, acceptable sources include course learning, articles or publications from traumatology experts, Christian counseling authors, biblical scholars, and other scholarly publications.

Role-Play Demonstration involves you demonstrating an application of a cognitiveprocessing therapy or prolonged exposure therapy model with a student peer in a mock 30–45-minute session. EMDR is not permitted as a role play since specific certifications areneeded for that treatment (unless you already have these certifications). For example, youmight videotape the fifth module of CPT in working with a peer “client”. The student clientapplies a role-play situation that does not involve a real personal trauma, rather, is fictional.Briefly introduce the client’s history and demographics, how the modules have progressed inprior sessions, and then share the role-play of what the fifth module looked like in workingtogether. Another option is that you might record a mock session doing prolonged exposurewith a student peer on a fictitious trauma. Provide a brief introduction of the client’s history,and then do the demonstration. Watch the demonstration before submitting it and write someself-evaluation comments on how you think you did and what you might do differently if youcould do the session again. Thus, you will submit your video and 2 pages of self-evaluation(or you can add some video self-evaluation comments after you have viewed your video).Several software programs would permit you to record the role-play demonstration onlinewith your peer. For example, Skype for Business permits you to record a session. Noreferences are needed for this option, but a clear integration of the course learning and self-evaluation must be present.
