Why This Training Exists

Bridge the gap so you can help
more people — safely.

Even if you've been trained in EMDR, IFS, or Somatic Experiencing, understanding the basics of complex trauma and dissociation is essential to work safely with this population. This course was created to bridge that gap — especially for those who have been told they can't be helped.

🎯

Accurate Assessment

People with Dissociative Identity Disorder typically spend 3–5 years in treatment before an accurate diagnosis. You can change that.

🛡️

Safe, Structured Care

Holding a sturdy frame for therapy provides structure, support, and safety for clients with complex trauma.

🧭

Confident Pacing

Know when to slow down and when to move forward — without fear or premature processing.

What You'll Get

Everything you need to
practice with confidence.

Assess for Dissociation with Confidence

Learn the key tools and screening frameworks to identify dissociation early and accurately — before it derails treatment.

Experiential Learning & Hands-On Application

This isn't lecture-only. You'll engage in experiential exercises and live practice to build real clinical confidence.

Keep Your Treatment Plan on Point

The three pillars of
effective complex trauma care.

01

Assessment

People with Dissociative Identity Disorder typically spend 3–5 years in treatment before getting an accurate diagnosis. Learning to effectively assess for dissociation from the start keeps your treatment plan on point — saving your clients time, money, and heartbreak.

02

Case Conceptualization

Holding a sturdy therapeutic frame provides structure, support, and safety for clients with complex trauma. This training gives you the skills to understand what to do — and when to do it.

03

Knowing When to Progress

The biggest mistake clinicians make is moving too quickly into memory work — or getting so scared they stay in supportive therapy indefinitely. This training builds your confidence to know when to slow down and when to move forward.
