January 11-12, 2025
In-Person Training in Santa Barbara, CA

This two-day event will be a small-group, experiential journey designed to deepen your somatic awareness and enhance your ability to connect more fully with your clients' processes.

Awareness of physical sensations facilitates the nervous system’s ability to process through previously repetitive responses, including those associated with trauma. This is fundamental for developing the understanding and confidence to use a somatic approach effectively.  This is not just a technique; it is a powerful way to take advantage of how our nature actually works.

Natural Processing Trainings Part 1

Tracking Resiliency • Pacing the Work • Deepening Processing

In this intensive training, therapists will learn to assess and intervene from a somatic perspective while using EMDR, to enhance the therapy process. Heightened awareness of the functioning of the body and nervous system aid the therapist in pacing the work well. This approach taps into our natural inclination towards completion, integrating well with the EMDR AIP model. Therapists can increase their skills in tracking and developing resiliency, crucial for the many moments in therapy when our clients struggle to stay regulated.
