Dissociation: Trauma's Protective Strategy
1 CE | Cost: FREE
Often misunderstood and misdiagnosed, dissociation can be a deeply adaptive response to trauma. In this training you’ll learn how to recognize its many forms, reduce shame around it, and engage dissociative parts safely from an ego-state informed lens.
Resilience as Suicide Prevention
1 CE | Cost: FREE
Resilience is more than coping—it’s the capacity to stay connected to life even in the face of pain and uncertainty. This training explores how neurobiology, belonging, and ego-state theory intersect to build prevention strategies that help clients weather their hardest moments.
