Sensorimotor Psychotherapy for Trauma Themes - Hybrid

APRIL 10, 2024 - NOVEMBER 6, 2024

COVID - 19 Guidelines:

This training operates under the guidance of local public health orders. Some venues where SPI trainings are held may require their own COVID-19 guidelines, including the use of masks and proof of vaccination and/or proof of a negative COVID-19 test before entry. SPI will communicate via email any COVID-19 venue requirement details prior to the training. For any questions, please contact studentservices@sensorimotor.org.

SPI may update these guidelines at any time to ensure the safety of the training and will share updates with training participants.

This blended learning course is designed to make the most of your time with course facilitators and colleagues and provide you the flexibility to work through the conceptual course materials at your own pace.

Learn skills to notice and process the residues of traumatic experience that are held in your clients' bodies. Sensorimotor Psychotherapy helps you to work with your clients beyond words, with the often implicit somatic patterns related to traumatic experience to help inspire lasting change from the inside, out.

In this six-module course, you will learn the basics of Sensorimotor Psychotherapy for working with traumatic experience, practice the basic skills that you will be able to apply immediately with your clients who are distressed or traumatized and touch on adaptations of SP skills for more complex clinical situations.
