Get a comprehensive clinical toolbox
for working with race-based trauma in
BIPOC clients seeking therapy!

The terrifying stress of traffic stops. Violent and unjust deaths televised on 24-hour loops. Walking into a store and being followed by a clerk. Race-based stressors can leave BIPOC clients overwhelmed with fear, anxiety, hopelessness, and emotional exhaustion.

And today we're seeing an unprecedented spike in the number of BIPOC clients seeking therapy to help them manage the trauma, raw pain, and emotional burden of these experiences.

As a therapist, being just "culturally competent" isn't nearly enough.

You need refined knowledge and skills that most clinicians were never taught. Without them, you'll fail to move clients facing the distress of daily assaults on their dignity toward greater hope and healing.

That's why we're bringing you our new Advanced Racial Trauma Treatment course, so you can go beyond cultural competency...

...and get the clinical framework and tools you need to assess for racial trauma and expertly treat it with interventions from ACT, CBT, Polyvagal Theory and more.

  • Avoid clinical missteps that can damage the therapeutic alliance

Deactivating the Polyvagal Response to Racial Trauma
with Candice Dickens, LCPC-S, LCADC-S, CCTP, MAC

Polyvagal Theory for complex racial trauma offers a profound method for developing a connection to resolve trauma that can transform your clients' minds, bodies, and your practice.

Learn how applying the Polyvagal response to racial trauma can:
  • Help BIPOC clients process intergenerational and legacy trauma
  • Develop new neurological connections to change old patterns
  • Decrease reaction to triggering stimuli related to race
  • Teach you to receive your client as they are, enriching your dyadic attunement

Lead clients through processing their own complex trauma related to race, childhood experiences, and more — while also deepening your understanding of your own nervous system reactions in session.

Frequently Asked Questions

As explained by Dr. Lillian Gibson in this care-changing trauma training, your clients are forced to navigate a society built on white supremacy. For anyone seen as "different" because of their race, culture, or class, living with that constant stress — be it blatant discrimination or daily microaggressions — is traumatizing.

But acknowledging the impact white supremacy has on us is just the first step to helping your clients heal from racial-based trauma and PTSD.

This self-study course gives you the comprehensive framework you need to assess and treat racial trauma and minority stress featuring interventions from ACT, CBT, Polyvagal, and more.

Learn what to say — and what to avoid saying — in triggering sessions using the therapy scripts included in this training and explore your own thoughts and feelings with clinician reflection questionnaires.

If you believe a clinician's journey to becoming culturally competent is continuous — that it's a practice, not a destination — then THIS IS THE TRAINING FOR YOU!

Develop customizable treatment plans (including printable scripts, clinician worksheets, and case studies) with the help of three racial trauma experts and walk away with ACT, CBT, mindfulness, and Polyvagal strategies for treating chronic stress, insomnia, PTSD, and more.
