About This Training

Advanced clinical training that clarifies, integrates, and builds confidence.

Many therapists are trained in powerful trauma modalities, but struggle to see how those approaches actually integrate in real clinical work.

This training gives you an inside look at an intensive therapy format that blends EMDR, Internal Family Systems, and Sandtray. You'll observe a live intensive demonstration, learn the clinical reasoning behind each intervention, and strengthen your case conceptualization skills.

Watch an intensive unfold in real time — not a role play

Strengthen case conceptualization for complex trauma clients

Leave with practical tools you can use right away
