With trauma on the increase... And past approaches falling flat...

"Are you tuned-in to the new trauma treatments? Are your skills tuned-up and ready?"

Unless we're aware of the exciting new work coming out of trauma research, which is more and more solidly based in neurobiology, or skilled in how we can implement these new applications into our practice, we're not serving our patients as well as we might.

At NICABM, we've put together a new teleseminar series: "New Treatments for Trauma: Setting Free the Trauma-Locked Brain."

With the heightened increase of military trauma, the influx of patients seeking treatment is growing astronomically.

But that means, too, that so many of our psychotherapists and health and mental health care practitioners are just not ready...

Mostly because the new research points to treatments that are significantly different from those we learned in our graduate and post grad programs.

So, it made sense for us to get to you, the latest right now - the most essential ideas that can bring impact to your practice and success to your treatments.

Mind/Body Medicine is making new in-roads and setting a new standard in the treatment of trauma...

Talk therapy just doesn't always work.

As a matter of fact, we're seeing how that long-practiced approach can so often re-traumatize.

But the new applications are most compelling, and it won't take long before you discover just how significantly trauma treatment has changed.

If we're not tuned-in to these new ideas that are working with some very promising success, our patients will simply miss out.

Few would argue that trauma treatments are on a new track.

And you'll want to be there with the experts who are leading the way.

Get in on these fast-paced, idea-filled conversations during the next six weeks as I host six of my colleagues, experts in the field who are developing innovative approaches that can free patients from trauma's unyielding grip.

You'll hear about the same kind of patients who come into your practice. Their symptoms and complaints will be familiar, but you'll get the latest approaches that use what we've been learning from the new brain science to pin-point and treat the "trauma centers" of the brain.

In each of these calls, we'll drill-deep:

  • How to harness the power of somatic experience and memory.
  • How to use breakthroughs in sensorimotor processing.
  • How to incorporate new concepts in dissociation and attachment theories into our clinical applications.
  • and so much more...

And, if you listen at the time they are broadcast, these teleseminars are free.

Our mission is to change the way medicine is practiced.

If you share in this mission, then take a look at these six sessions and see how they might make a difference in the work that you do.

Patricia Arango, Psychotherapist
Cali, Colombia

"These lectures on neuroscience and mindfulness have been enormously helpful for my practice. I had already been using the concept of mindfulness with my clients but the idea of liking the benefits of it with our brain have been so helpful in motivating the clients to practice. This lecture has reinforced the past lectures and complemented the understanding of neuroplasticity and the benefits of meditation."

Rosa Jimenez-Vazques,MSW, ACSW
Retired Social Work Professor Mind-Body Therapies practitioners and Presenter
Richmond, VA

"I enjoyed the presentation tremendously. Illuminating! I am amazed with the "simplicity" of this work. Integrate the client, no side effects! It is the artistic, creative application of the knowledge-based we learn. I am going to continue learn to use it with my clients and include the knowledge in my presentation with LCSWs...Ruth, Congratulations for the valuable contributions you manifest for professionals."

Sandra Lundbergs, Psychologist
Ocean Shores/Byron Bay, Australia

"Great seminar!...I think that kind of terminology would be pretty accessible for my clients, so will be trying it out. All I have heard in the seminars with regard to changing and growing our brains is very heartening. Worth signing up for the gold class, I think, so I can listen again, and catch the ones I've missed."

Tracy DeGeer, Naturopath
Sydney, Australia

"Thank you for this series, unfortunately I have missed some along the way , but what I could hear has been enriching and encouraging. It is great to know that when someone, through research and or clinical practice has breakthroughs, we can all around the world pick up on that and we can build on the collective knowledge so we can move towards a better experience of life for more and more people -including ourselves."
