About this Event

Join Watch Hill Therapy for a year long (4 workshops) focus on understanding and treating dissociation. The trainings are ordered from least complex to most complex and include multiple speakers and different ways of learning, as well as somatic restoration/release at the end.

Each workshop includes 6 CEUs and attendance is in person. There will be no recording of the workshops, live attendence is required. CEUs are approved in IL for LCSW, LMFT, LCPC, PsyD. If you are attending from out of state, you need to get approval from your state for our CEUs.

These workshops are intended to help therapists that are working with complex trauma survivors who experienced relational harm in varying degrees. Attendees should have a basic understanding of complex trauma already, as we dive more deeply into dissociation, dissocitive parts, betrayal blindness, working with survivors of extremem terror, and interventions for parts work and memory work.

Information about the host: Tovah Means, (she/her), MS, LMFT is the founder and co-owner of trauma specialty group practice, Watch Hill Therapy, located in downtown Chicago.
