dc.description.abstractThis capstone will explore and review research in the areas of Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD), Attachment Theory, and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy. According to public data from the Ministry of Children and Family Development (MCFD), in 2021/2022, almost 50,000 protection reports were made to the Ministry, involving approximately 55,000 children and youth. Of those calls, 6,864 were made by schools (MCFD, 2022). There are also students who live in silence and fear with their pain, and they will likely require support within the school or classroom setting in other ways. CPTSD can be diagnosed after prolonged trauma occurs and has been empirically connected to childhood abuse. Attachment can be damaged within children and adolescents who have suffered abuse, however positive attachments can be reestablished. Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy is a proven therapeutic approach to healing the wounds of trauma, particularly within individuals suffering from PTSD and CPTSD. The goal of this current work is to query: how can students suffering from Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (CPTSD) be supported in schools using attachment theory and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy?
