Trauma Healing Certificate Program – Building Resilience With a Mind-Body Approach

5 days

About this Workshop

This five-day training explores trauma’s emotional, psychological, physical, and spiritual impacts. Beginning with how trauma affects the brain and nervous system, you’ll explore a framework for managing and resolving trauma, along with valuable strategies for trauma counselling.

You will learn to establish safety, manage flashbacks, heal through holistic body-oriented strategies, and promote resilience and post-traumatic growth. The last day of the program will be an integrative experience where you will examine your own experiences of vicarious trauma, so you can develop a personalized coping plan. The last day will also have opportunities to apply what you’ve learned to a variety of complex case studies.
