Trauma Integration Specialist Certification Training
ATTCH has been providing premiere trauma and attachment trainings and certification since 2013. Our trauma integration certification program provides current, quality trauma and attachment training for individuals, clinicians, and organizations and trauma-integration training in our Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM) ® and Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM-A) Adapted Non-Clinical Stream®. Our program is quite comprehensive and holistic in nature focusing on mind-body neuroscience and somatic approaches.
Our Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM) ® is a layered / integrative model that incorporates multiple modalities and layers to regulate the body, brain and mind simultaneously. It is a rich integrative approach with components of sensory processing, somatic therapy, CBT, resource installation, bilateral stimulation and sensory regulation work to name a few components. You can learn more about feedback on our website https://www.attachment-and-trauma-treatment-centre-for-healing.com/what-people-are-saying-about-our-certification-trainings.html or facebook page (under reviews) https://www.facebook.com/AttachmentandTraumaTreatmentCentreforHealing/?ref=hl.

Days 1 & 2: Day 1 Understanding the Foundations of Trauma and Attachment, Day 2 Phase-Based Clinical Applications to Promote Healing and Integration of Trauma and Attachment Dysregulation and Day 3 Trauma Processing Experiential (description below)
with Lori Gill, Founder and Lead Trauma Therapist, Attachment and Trauma Treatment Centre for Healing (Days 1& 2 are the same for both certification streams ITATM-A & ITATM)
The fields of attachment and trauma research and intervention are growing rapidly. It is apparent that this is an area all clinicians can benefit from training in as it crosses all sectors and populations in some manner. However, we know that it can be difficult to keep up with all of the readings and resources. As this is our area of specialization, let us share what we have learned through our literature and research reviews and what we have effectively put into practice with you in an engaging and practical manner.
Day 1 will provide insight into current trauma, attachment, and neuroscience research ensuring an understanding of critical information and best practice strategies for working with trauma. This training will also help you to enhance your clinical skills and learn how you can add trauma regulation and attachment healing strategies to your repertoire.
Day 2 will focus on putting it into practice. Through this Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM) participants will learn how to make historical connections, engage in integrative trauma-specific treatment approaches, and promote resiliency and wellness. Participants will learn about phase-based treatment of complex trauma and review of best practice and evidence-based approaches will also be experienced.
Upon completion of training participants will have a strong understanding of:
Trauma-Informed Care
Sensory Regulation
Boundaries, Self-Compassion, and Healthy Relationships
Trauma Processing* Part 2
In part 2 participants learn to implement the ITATM protocol. In art 2 participants will learn:
Part 2: Trauma Processing Experiential & Applied Practice Part 1
This workshop takes participants through the trauma processing practices introduced in the core training. This workshop takes participants through experiential of our Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM)® from start to finish and includes various techniques (from brief assessment, grounding, trauma processing, somatic discharging and shifting affect for completion of session in an emotionally regulated manner). Participants will experience various experiential activities inclusive of a live demonstration and the opportunity to practice techniques learned (as both the counsellor and the client) in a partner format with guidance from the facilitator. This experiential days allows for discussion, questions, and reflections from participants at a deeper level as it is facilitated in a small group format.
Trauma Processing Experiential & Applied Practice Part 2 & 3
These two days take participants through the trauma processing practices introduced in the core training. This workshop takes participants through experiential of our Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM)® from start to finish and includes various techniques (from brief assessment, grounding, trauma processing, somatic discharging and shifting affect for completion of session in an emotionally regulated manner). Participants will experience various experiential activities inclusive of a live or video demonstration and further opportunities to practice trauma processing (as both the counsellor and the client) in a partner format with guidance from the facilitator. These experiential days allow for discussion, questions and reflections from participants at a deeper level as it is facilitated in a small group format.
Trainings will be rich with practical examples and exercises to help synthesize the material of focus. Core training is customized for the various streams and levels to allow for relevant training and intervention strategies. For supplemental training a wide variety of enhancement options are offered in areas such as energy based practices, somatic approaches, art and play therapy, meditation, mindfulness etc.
Part 3
Days 1-3
Advanced Training & Applied Practice and Experiential of our Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model Adapted (ITATM) ®
This training will focus on working with preverbal trauma, attachment trauma, intergenerational transmission of trauma, parts work, and other aspects of complex trauma.
Advance registration is required, limited spaces available to ensure individualized attention. Please contact [email protected] to register or fill out the registration form below.
