The successful resolution of traumatic stress can be simple.

Studies have shown that there are four key elements required to heal traumatic stress. When you accomplish these with your clients, you’ll reduce their symptoms and speed healing.

It can be simple…but it’s not easy.

In this online clinical certification training course, we will guide you step-by-step through a proven four-stage framework for navigating these essential elements with your clients.

And since these elements are common to all evidence-based trauma treatments, you can integrate this framework with your current approach or methodology to make your treatment even more effective!

This trauma competency training can transform your practice and trauma treatment outcomes, just as it has for clinicians around the world.

Plus, this course meets the educational requirements to become a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) through the International Association of Trauma Professionals (IATP).
