Join us for a live webinar on the lasting impact of Developmental Trauma,  how to identify it in the therapy room and provide effective treatment for those who've experienced it. We will discuss the biology of the brain, the effects of trauma during development, and how to identify dissociation in the therapy room. Additionally, we'll explore neurodivergence and its relationship to trauma, all aimed at empowering LPCs, LCSWs, and LMFTs to work confidently with diverse populations experiencing developmental trauma. 

 

We will share valuable insights into stabilization techniques that can be used at any level of experience and are the foundation for treating Developmental Trauma.  Stabilization skills will include special consideration for dissociation and neurodivergent clients.  We will briefly explore numerous treatment options, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Image Transformation Therapy (IMTT), and Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR). Register today and transform your practice.

  • Diagnosis: Define Developmental Trauma both clinically and as it pertains to the therapy room.

  • Identify and Understand Dissociation traits.
  • Understand the biology of the brain and trauma.
  • Understand Neurodivergence and trauma, as well as treatment concerns
