How common psychiatric diseases impact neurons, structures, pathways, and networks

Do you want to discover new tactics that use the most recent brain research?

Over-reactivity is a prevalent denominator among clients who arrive with anxiety, bereavement, trauma, stress, or relationship issues.

Join Kate Cohen-Posey, Master Clinician and Author, for a day of cutting-edge, brain-based therapies that minimize over-reactivity and address many common clinical conditions.

Kate’s innovative curriculum combines the research methods of famous neuroscientist Richard Davidson and others with the tried-and-true clinical methods of CBT, mindfulness, hypnosis, ego-state therapy, and somatic treatments. The end result is a broad-based framework of therapeutic procedures that is uncommon in modern psychotherapy practice!

Examine the consequences of engaging brain areas for calming/positive or upsetting/negative emotional states.
Learn a brain-based strategy for externalizing negative ideas and identifying inner resources.
Case consultation on neuro-educational procedures for panic attacks, OCD, anger control, and trauma is available.
Use techniques to interrupt neuronal circuits that attack-defend-withdraw.
You will be given materials to help you introduce and apply these life-changing skills with your customers.

Are you ready to go forward? Join us and you will leave this program feeling inspired and passionate about your practice while implementing the most recent brain-based research and interventions! Even better, your clients will have a vehicle to be poetic and precise in describing both their distress and their strengths, enhancing therapist-client attunement.
