This training is for mental health professionals who work with people, one one-on-one, in a group setting, or in any other therapeutic role e.g. Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners (working clinically), Social Workers, Marriage and Family Therapists, and Art Therapists.

This is right for you if you:

Want to expand your professional skill set in treating clients with simple to multifaceted trauma.

Want to identify and implement clear boundaries that support the client- therapist relationship.

Are unsure how to keep treatment on track when a client is facing a blockage

Feel insecure in your work and are wondering if your clients are experiencing adequate relief.

Need accountability and community to grow into your role as a trauma specialist.

You will get a deep understanding of how to work with trauma, how to pick up on the nuances of trauma in your clients (the ones who present with it and are conscious of it, and those who are not), and be able to provide better clinical care.

Good therapy is not only about intervention, it is also about assessments and attunment of the therapist who knows how to identify the primary treatment needs of the client.

This training will help you develop a Trauma Informed Lens so that you create a treatment plan that allows for more efficient and effective therapy.

You will also learn interventions including mind-body somatic interventions, cognitive interventions, "parts work" as well as expressive arts and attachment informed interventions. Each module has exercises and handouts for you to use as psychoeducation as well as tools and ideas to use in your very next session!

I'm so glad you asked! At the beginning of the course, we have you fill out a self assessment so we get a real sense of where you're at, what you're hoping to gain and what you're already really skilled at.

We re-administer the assessment at the end of the course to track your growth, and what you gained in this course.

We want to help you notice your own growth as you expand your confidence, wisdom and skills.

We also want you to be able to notice the smaller, yet equally significant, gains of deepening the knowledge you may have already known, while solidifying your clinical voice.

We are open to feedback and input as we want to be sure you are getting exactly what you need from this course.

For some of you, some of this will be a deepening of what you know, while gaining new skills, and for others, this will all be new and you'll digest it at a pace that's right for you.

How does a lifetime sound to you?

Yes, you can review the information as long as you want, and get to enjoy the upgrades as we tweak and evolve, with each cohort.

Intensive Trauma training is a cohort-based, mentorship program that:

-Gives you all the trauma-related info and material you need to upskill your therapy and provide more to your clients.

-Integrates implementation with instruction, so you’re getting boots-on-the-ground advice as you use your new skills.

This is a 6-month comprehensive training. Each module is dripped out slowly so as not to overwhelm you. You can watch each module at your own pace. We also run twice-a-month 90-minute consultation meetings where you get personalized consultation and support for the clinical complexities you're currently facing.

We have the perfect blend. Learning together when you need it, and going at your own pace, when you don’t.

There are a few!

One, seeing the lightbulb go off in therapists minds as they get clarity on previously murky concepts! It's invigorating to see the clarity and how newfound wisdom can truly shift the clinical focus, and improves client results.

As well, what I love is...getting to know how many thirsty and passionate therapists are out there, committed to growing, blossoming and evolving as humans..it's inspiring!

And, seeing the devotion of soulful therapists who know how their investment outside of session really allows for significant shifts. This is all humbling to see.
