NICABM – Help Clients with Trauma-Related Dysregulation

NICABM - Help Clients with Trauma-Related Dysregulation

If you work with trauma, you likely see clients who are dysregulated.

That means you know how hard therapy can be when a client is reactive and easily triggered. Not only that, you know how much of a strain that puts on a client’s relationships, their work, and the way they approach the world.

So to help clients widen their window of tolerance more effectively, we need to:

  • Understand the neurobiological difference between processing trauma and reliving it
  • Downregulate the brain’s alarm systems and restore higher cognitive functioning
  • Help clients explore the edges of their window (without triggering them)

That’s why we brought together four masters in the field of trauma (Bessel van der Kolk, MD, Pat Ogden, PhD, Stephen Porges, PhD, Ruth Lanius, MD, PhD) to get their expert insights on working with trauma-related dysregulation.

You’ll get their best strategies for working with the brain, body, and nervous system to help clients ground in the present, increase their window of tolerance, and process trauma.

Here’s What Your Peers Have Experienced In NICABM Programs

. . . instrumental in opening my mind and heart to understanding trauma.

“These seminars have been instrumental in opening my mind and heart to understanding trauma. They are brief and accessible and of such high quality that I’ve been able to glean real understanding and a starting point for further study. I can’t say enough about them. I have recommended them to so many of my colleagues and they say the same things I do about them. Thank you Ruth!”

Angela Lawrence, Drug and Alcohol Counselor
British Columbia, Canada

The material covered has . . . fully supported my purpose, enhancing my knowledge of the theories behind the actions taken.

“I am a soldier, who works with other soldiers and their families (The PTSD Retreat), in reference to PTSD. We, as soldiers, are all taught the very basics of PTSD, in what we call “death-by-PowerPoint,” but it never goes beyond this. Indeed, it is repeated over and over, without change, and it rarely if ever gets to the families. The material covered in here has fully supported my purpose, enhancing my knowledge of the theories behind the actions taken. I am so grateful to have been able to follow this series and look forward to furthering my education with this entity. Thank you”

D. Nicole Johnson, Drug and Alcohol Counselor
Starr Founder, The PTSD Retreat

. . . very cost effective and practical . . .

“These programs offer a broad spectrum of both information and specific guidelines with top experts in different fields of addressing human suffering. All in a very cost effective and practical way. Rather than thousands of dollars spent on the cost of conference I can learn in the comfort of my own home or office, on my own schedule. Certainly recommend any of these series to my colleagues.”

Ian Macnaughton, PhD, Psychotherapist
Vancouver, BC, Canada

My clients have been able to build their confidence. . .

“My clients have been able to build their confidence in their ability to self-regulate on their own in pretty difficult situations, including work and family of origin situations. Their success has then built their self-esteem as they can see that they can be successful in changing some fairly habitual ways of interacting and hurting themselves. It is a positive cycle that builds upon itself”

Nancy Lasater, MSW, LCSW
Boulder, CO

Angela Lawrence

“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.”
