Filling the Void: Why So Many Emotional Issues Tie in with a Deep Sense of Emptiness
“What’s the point of trying? I just don’t feel anything. I feel dead inside.”
If you’ve ever heard a client express these thoughts, there’s a good chance they’re feeling a sense of emptiness.
And here’s the thing – even if emptiness isn’t the main issue that brought your client to therapy (and it usually isn’t) . . .
. . . it can so often factor in – whether you’re treating depression, trauma, attachment wounds, grief, or even (and perhaps especially) borderline personality disorder.
And for some clients, no matter how much progress they’ve made, they still struggle to feel meaningful connection to their life, body, or relationships.
So to give you strategies to help your client shift out of a numbing sense of emptiness, we brought together 21 of the world’s top experts for this brand-new short course.

I benefit, my practice benefits, and most important my clients benefit . . .
“I live in Nova Scotia and have limited travel funds at the university at which I work. The series provided by NICABM gives me the rare opportunity to listen to the leaders in the field. As a result, I learn valuable information that would not otherwise be available to me. I benefit, my practice benefits, and most important my clients benefit from the knowledge and wisdom I gain from the series.”
David Mensink, PhD Counseling Psychology, Psychologist

. . . some dare to go the extra journey to research and educate
“These NICABM series keep me afloat, in touch, on track, well trained in my field, and more personally healthy. The best aspect, though, is that I feel validated and comforted knowing that some dare to go the extra journey to research and educate, so I can walk the path to health, and can share with others.”

- The transcript makes it easy to go back and double check concepts, citations and names that are mentioned
- We put in a table of contents to make it easy for you to find the exact part of the webinar you need
- Having the concepts already written allows you to take notes on how you’re going to use the ideas rather than transcribing the ideas
- Some people simply learn better by reading than by listening or watching
- You will be able to print out and share techniques presented in the session with your patients
“I really liked being able to follow along with the transcripts as I listened…it was nice not to feel like I had to take notes. I really feel like I remember more when I both hear and see at the same time.”
