Master the exact skills and strategies I use to transform all types of self-injury.
Chances are high that if someone walks into your office with unresolved trauma, they are likely self-injuring.
You're probably familiar with the signs: cuts on the arms and legs, substance abuse,
frequent cycles of bingeing and purging, or unhealthy sexual behaviors.
For most clinicians, it's shocking to encounter these behaviors, and the first impulse is to take drastic actions to stop them.
But if you don't know what you're doing in these situations, you could actually cause more harm for your client.
That's why I'm offering this online course that will help you provide clients with lasting relief from their trauma-induced self-harm. This online course is different from any other training available because it provides an effective, strengths based, de-pathologized model of working with self-harm.
Sign up now and master my approach to self-injury that will help you understand, decode, and work with even the most challenging self-harm cases.
You'll get access to six step-by-step sessions that will teach you how to apply parts therapy, expressive arts, and body-based techniques to overcome the deeps roots of shame and trauma ... so your clients can finally heal from their pain.
I promise that once you’ve completed this training, you’ll have a creative and hopeful approach for working with these behaviors, without evoking power struggles or shame.
