Dialectical Behavior Therapy
for Trauma Therapists:

Understanding DBT as a Skills Training Curriculum for Clients with
Severe and Early Traum
a

- A Community Training and Networking Meeting with J. Ryan Kennedy, LPC, LMFT, RN -

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a skills-based, psychoeducational model designed to help clients learn and practice basic tools for managing self-harming behaviors, intrusive thoughts, intense or overwhelming feelings, and other painful experiences. Rooted in principles of mindfulness practice, existential philosophy, developmental psychology, and cognitive/behavioral therapy, DBT skills training is particularly helpful to clients in the early stages of any kind of recovery process or those who find themselves stuck in destructive patterns that are hard to break.

In the first part of this training, participants are introduced to the basic structure of DBT and the four modules of DBT Skills Training. In the second part, participants specifically learn skills associated with the DBT module of Distress Tolerance. Distress Tolerance skills are foundational for many clients who have a history of significant and early trauma. Learning distress tolerance skills enables clients to manage their pain and overwhelm more effectively so they can use psychotherapy successfully, rather than engaging in crises promoting behavior.

Emotional Intelligence in Relationships: 
Advanced Strategies for Rewiring Outmoded Emotional Habits

- A Two-Day Training Intensive for Couples Therapists with Brent J. Atkinson, PhD -

We are delighted to welcome Brent Atkinson, PhD, to Colorado to share his integrative and highly effective approach to working with couples: Pragmatic/Experiential Therapy for Couples (PET-C). Through highly interactive exercises and facilitated discussions, Dr. Atkinson will demonstrate how you can help your clients become motivated to acquire the full set of abilities needed for relationships to succeed. In addition, you'll receive resources for helping your clients understand the ins and outs of the “Habits of Relationship Success” and for helping them learn how and when each habit is needed. 

During the course of this training Dr. Atkinson will present provocative new neurological research that illuminates how old, destructive relationship habits often die hard because they are woven into the fabric of internal states which are automatically activated in daily living, often without conscious awareness. This information, combined with practical skills, will enable you to help your clients engage in state-specific practices that rewire their brains for more flexibility, enabling them to develop the habits that are needed to sustain satisfying relationships.  

SPECIAL NOTE: In order to support and maintain the calibre of information and experience provided in this workshop, participation has been limited to 35 people. Please register early!
