Description
We are living in unprecedented times – pandemics, climate collapse, endless wars, uncontrolled technologies, rising authoritarianism. Clients and clinicals alike are confronted with real time, interconnected crises that complicate existing traumatic wounding. How can we better stabilize ourselves and our clients? In this dynamic session, we will explore how we can build the resilience to heal trauma and begin to shift the forces creating adversity in the first place.
