Essentials of an Integrated Trauma-Informed Practice
Presenter: Amy Zajakowski Uhll, LCPC
Price: $90
In this workshop, we will focus on the fundamentals of trauma-informed practice. Concepts related to the body and nervous system that must be integrated into any approach in order to make it “trauma-informed”.

Dissociation: The Experience of Knowing and Not Knowing
Presenter: Amy Zajakowski Uhll, LCPC
Price: $100
Dissociation is a highly creative and adaptive coping strategy in an environment that is dangerous and chaotic. In the face of trauma–we employ the protective strategy of trying to “unknow” that which is too terrifying to integrate. However, the word dissociation itself can evoke fear and confusion in the hearts of therapists. In our clinical conversations when we use the word “dissociation” we are often not even talking about the same thing. In this workshop, we will examine the various definitions of dissociation and we will explore the experience in the room when we encounter it. We will work together to take the mystery out of assessing, diagnosing and treating dissociation and complex trauma.
