1Â HOUR CE TRAINING IN SUICIDE PREVENTION
Resilience as Suicide Prevention
Available on-demand
Presented by: Laurel Thornton and Jessica Downs
Course Description
Resilience is more than the absence of symptoms—it’s the capacity to stay connected to life in the face of pain and uncertainty. In this one-hour training, we’ll explore how the brain, body, and sense of self work together to protect against suicidality, and how connection may be our most powerful tool in prevention. You’ll learn practical, relationship-centered strategies, informed by neurobiology and ego state work, to help clients strengthen their ability to weather life’s hardest moments.
