Body Based Therapies | 6 CEUs
This in-person training is for the therapist who has felt “stuck” or sought ongoing consultation for clients presenting with symptoms of trauma. Even if your client has been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, you may still find yourself puzzled about how to best help your client move forward. This training is meant to enrich your current therapy skills, leaving you with practical, ready-to-use interventions and regulation tools.
