EVENTBRITE INFO & TICKETS

CEU Workshops

All therapists will work with trauma at some capacity in their career as a therapist, even if they don’t identify it as a speciality. Trauma is ubiquitous to the human experience, particularly in our individualistic, isolating society that values work, productivity, and consumerism over community and connection. So few therapists receive prolonged training on how to work with complex trauma and dissociation. Without an understanding of solid trauma, relational, and somatic informed approaches, we risk doing harm to our clients. This is why we offer workshops for ongoing training on how to work with trauma. Our workshops are taught by our team and by outside trauma specialists with their own unique cultural and clinical perspectives.

Trauma Survivor Workshops

Healing from trauma is done best when a variety of different strategies are used that address the mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional impacts of trauma. If you are looking for resources beyond or in addition to talk therapy, we offer a collection of workshops open to the community that aim to be accessible, connecting, and enriching.

One of our missions as a trauma treatment specialty practice is to make resources for trauma survivors more accessible. Since trauma impacts the whole self, its treatment involves integrating the whole self; mind, body, and spirit. We look for practitioners of all sorts of modalities that work to unite a person with themselves in a variety of ways including:

When we are isolated from community support, validation, and resources, we become isolated and disconnected from others as well as ourselves. By participating in healing together, in whatever capacity feels safe and manageable for the trauma survivor, we can reconnect to ourselves and a level of safety in the world around us.
