_______________________________
Recent advances in neuroscience and research have supported the development of many modalities to treat the legacy of traumatic experiences, such as EMDR, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Somatic Experiencing, DBT, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Brainspotting, and Relational Psychodynamic approaches. They have all made a contribution to how we think about and treat traumatic wounding and early attachment difficulties. However, as therapists, we are not treating “sexual abuse” or “an eating disorder;” we are treating human beings. Our Advanced Clinical Program is a didactic and consultative training program for clinicians with their own practice who wish to deepen their knowledge of trauma-informed treatment.
In this program we will:
- Explore the principals of all trauma-informed practice
- Explore the current thinking around trauma and attachment
- Collaborate on developing integrated treatment approaches tailored to the unique needs of each of our clients.
- Ground in the essential concept of working within a Window of Tolerance
- Explore Polyvagal Theory and central nervous system regulation
- Define and practice what it means to work in the present moment
- Integrate a body-centered lens and skills
- Explore the impact of attachment wounding and complex trauma
- Deepen into assessment, diagnosis and treatment of dissociation and dissociated parts
- Explore tracking and contacting the impact of oppression over the life course
- Explore the concept of the therapist’s experience as clinical information
Fall 2021 Training Team
CCIH director Amy Zajakowski Uhll and CCIH staff therapist Meghan Reilly will lead the program, with additional consulting provided by Richla Davis and Sarah Landolfi. In Richla Davis’ training, participants can expect to engage in an interactive training focused on assessing for racial trauma, understanding our role as clinicians in conceptualizing the emotional and physical impact of racism as well as acquiring the skill set to recognize, address, and support client’s experience of microaggressions. In Sarah Landolfi’s training, therapists will learn to better understand, assess for, and treat the traumatic effects of pervasive anti-fat oppression as they appear in clients of all sizes who present for psychotherapy.
We welcome applicants of all racial identities, gender identities, and sexual orientations. We want to make training accessible to all those who share our commitment to trauma-informed care. If cost or financial situation would prohibit you from participating, please reach out so we can discuss payment plans, discounted payment, or scholarship options.
