Nobody can “treat” abuse, rape, molestation, or any other horrendous event - what has happened can’t be undone.
But what we can treat are the imprints of the trauma on body, mind, and soul.
Join Bessel van der Kolk, MD, in his transformational clinical trauma training. Learn from one of the most renowned trauma experts - one who has spent decades working both as a researcher and clinician– and NY Times bestselling author of The Body Keeps the Score.
As clinicians, the challenge is to help clients reestablish ownership of their bodies and minds — to feel without becoming overwhelmed, enraged, ashamed, or collapsed.
It takes specific methods, like neurofeedback, EMDR, meditation, yoga, mindfulness, and sensory integration. Dr. van der Kolk has used every one of these methods extensively to successfully treat his own clients, and has also experienced them himself.
Let Dr. van der Kolk show you how to apply these proven methods and approaches to your clinical practice — so you can experience the satisfaction of helping even your toughest client heal from deep-rooted trauma.
This 2-day virtual workshop will serve as both a guide and an invitation to improve your treatment approach. You’re invited!
