Intimate partner violence (IPV) affects an estimated one in three women and one in ten men in the United States, cutting across every socioeconomic, racial, and cultural group (CDC, 2024). Persistent under-recognition in healthcare settings fuels preventable injury, chronic illness, and premature mortality, while escalating costs exceed $3.6 billion in direct medical spending each year (Peterson et al., 2023). This course equips clinicians across disciplines with the knowledge and skills needed to identify, assess, and respond to IPV through trauma-informed, culturally responsive practice.

EMDR is a powerhouse treatment for trauma, but when working with autistic and ADHD clients, sticking to the standard protocol without adaptations isn't enough. This training is your deep dive into making EMDR actually work for the different neurotypes in your caseload - and into understanding why you need to do it in the first place. This training was first offered in 2022 by Christine MacInnis, a lived-experience autistic and ADHD clinician with a PDA profile, when the neurodiversity-affirming movement was still in its infancy. Since then, the field has expanded with more trainings and offerings focused on EMDR with autistic and ADHD clients - but few provide hands-on, practical, guided tools and interventions that you can use right away. We'll journey through all eight phases of EMDR with a neurodivergent-affirming lens, learning the "why" behind the necessary adaptations and then applying practical, ready-to-use tools. We'll also explore something often overlooked: the cultural trauma that comes simply from existing in a world not built for your neurotype. No boring lectures here. Expect real-life videos, compelling case presentations, group exercises, and live demonstrations that bring these strategies to life. Questions are welcomed throughout the training. Walk away with a fully loaded neurodivergent-affirming EMDR toolkit and the confidence to meet your autistic and ADHD clients' unique needs.

Therapists often ask themselves: How can I best show up for my clients? Many individuals seek therapy after experiencing trauma, attachment ruptures, or other forms of interpersonal harm. Healing from these experiences is often fostered through relationships that feel attuned, safe, and secure. Yet remaining attuned can be challenging, particularly when a therapist's own attachment experiences, protective strategies, and internal dynamics emerge in the therapy room. This workshop explores attunement through the lens of Internal Family Systems (IFS), examining the roles that Self-energy and therapist parts play in fostering, or disrupting, connection. Participants will deepen their understanding of attunement, explore how experiences of misattunement shape clinical presence, identify therapist parts that interfere with connection, and learn strategies for recognizing and repairing misattunements in the therapeutic relationship. Through didactic instruction, experiential exercises, case examples, and a live demonstration, participants will gain practical tools for cultivating greater attunement and strengthening the therapeutic relationship.

Many clinicians feel curious about hypnosis but are unsure how it fits within trauma therapy, or worry that it may conflict with the EMDR model. In reality, Ericksonian hypnosis and EMDR share many core principles, including attunement, utilization of client strengths, and the careful use of focused attention to support adaptive processing. This workshop introduces clinicians to Ericksonian hypnosis and its practical integration with EMDR therapy in a way that is grounded, ethical, and immediately applicable to clinical work. Participants will begin by exploring the history and foundations of hypnosis, including how Ericksonian hypnosis differs from traditional directive approaches. We will address common myths and misconceptions about hypnosis and introduce core Ericksonian principles such as utilization, indirect suggestion, attuned language, and the strategic use of imagery and metaphor. The training then moves into the clinical integration of hypnosis-informed strategies within the EMDR framework. Participants will explore how strategic language, creativity, imagery, and focused attention can be incorporated across the 8 phases of EMDR, helping clinicians work more effectively with ambivalence and blocking patterns, protective responses and defenses, resourcing and containment, and maintaining dual attention during trauma processing Through demonstrations, guided exercises, and discussion, clinicians will learn how these principles can support client stabilization, engagement, and trauma processing. Participants will also have opportunities to practice skills in small groups, with guidance and support from the trainer as needed.

Many EMDR clinicians encounter moments when trauma reprocessing becomes slowed or blocked by avoidance, dissociation, shame, or other protective defenses. When this happens, therapists may feel unsure how to proceed while maintaining safety, attunement, and fidelity to the EMDR protocol. This two-day workshop introduces practical strategies drawn from Jim Knipe's EMDR Toolbox to help clinicians recognize and work with defenses that create barriers to trauma reprocessing. Participants will learn EMDR-based approaches that support stabilization, dual awareness, and clinical readiness when standard EMDR targeting strategies are not sufficient. The workshop focuses on understanding and working with Knipe's five trauma-related defenses - avoidance, dissociation, idealization, shame, and addictions - and how these protective responses can shape the course of trauma reprocessing. Participants will explore ways to recognize these defenses and respond in a manner that maintains safety while supporting forward movement in EMDR therapy. The workshop also introduces parts-informed concepts within EMDR therapy to help clinicians understand internal protective responses and their role in blocking trauma reprocessing. Integrating parts-informed language can support clinicians in working more effectively with shame, avoidance, and other protective responses that arise during EMDR treatment. Participants will leave with practical strategies and increased confidence in working with defenses and avoidance so trauma reprocessing can unfold with greater safety, clarity, and clinical effectiveness.

Pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood are powerful seasons of change that can reactivate long-standing wounds related to food, body image, control, and safety. Clients may present with renewed disordered eating patterns, heightened body distress, or internal conflict between wanting to "do better" for their children and feeling overwhelmed by coping strategies that resurface during this vulnerable time. This workshop introduces an IFS-informed EMDR approach to treating food and body struggles within the perinatal and parenting context. Participants will explore how disordered eating and body distress can be understood as protective adaptations shaped by trauma, identity shifts, and cultural pressure, rather than pathology or resistance. Clinicians will learn how to integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS) principles within the standard EMDR therapy model to support case conceptualization, preparation, target selection, and reprocessing. The training addresses key clinical considerations specific to perinatal populations, including nervous system vulnerability, medical trauma, loss of autonomy, and the impact of feeding and body-related experiences. Emphasis is placed on ethical practice, including pacing, informed consent, and adapting EMDR protocols to meet the needs of perinatal clients while maintaining safety and stability. This workshop is designed for clinicians working in perinatal mental health, eating disorders, or trauma who want to move beyond symptom management and support lasting, embodied healing for parents and their families.

In our rapidly changing world, the frequency and severity of natural disasters are increasing. These disasters not only pose immediate dangers to the population but also disrupt critical healthcare services, affecting the most vulnerable such as the chronically ill.

The 2020 presidential election landed alongside a global pandemic and civil unrest connected to racial injustices, creating a trifecta of stress and potential trauma. The American Mental Health Counselors Association's 2020 Code of Ethics calls upon clinical mental health counselors (CMHCs) to maintain objectivity (I.A.1); to take care of our own mental health so that we can be centered for our clients (I.C.1.h); to understand the role of our beliefs, values, and biases in our clinic work while seeking to better understand our clients (I.C.1.m); and to refrain from discriminating against our clients for their political beliefs (I.C.2.c).
