Diploma in Trauma Informed Psychotherapy
Commencing Friday 6th November 2020
Trauma Informed Psychotherapy
The importance of evaluating the effects of trauma is critical and has substantial implications for case-formulation and treatment planning in therapy. Therefore, before therapists can work with a client’s trauma they need to have a sound understanding of what trauma is and how to engage with it safely. Our IACP CPD approved and recognised Diploma In Trauma Informed Psychotherapy offers participants practical skills-based training with a strong theoretical foundation based on the latest neurobiological developments in working with trauma safely and effectively.
THIS PROGRAMME WILL BE FACILITATED ONLINE VIA ZOOM
