It’s Your Chance for a Neuroscience Training in New Haven, CT, Providence, RI or at Home via Live Webcast!
 

Neuroscience has given us incredible insights into the workings of the brain and its connection to our mental health.

We now understand that neuroplasticity continues throughout life, meaning real, meaningful change is possible no matter how long someone has struggled. Yet helping clients understand what’s happening in their brain can often feel complex or overwhelming.

When clinicians can clearly explain not only how the brain works, but how it relates to each client’s unique experiences and challenges, they can significantly improve client engagement, treatment adherence, and intervention effectiveness. This makes neuroscience an essential tool for clinicians seeking to create lasting change.

In this training, featuring neuroscience expert and author Dr. Sherrie All, you’ll gain a clear, practical framework for confidently applying brain-based principles in your work.

You’ll learn:

  • Effective ways to talk with clients about what's happening in their brain
  • How to refine interventions and learn new ones through brain science
  • The role of therapy and relationships in regulating stress
  • How and where neuroplasticity occurs, and ways to use it therapeutically
  • Strategies for using CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and Polyvagal Theory to overcome resistance, activate creative responses, and turn problems into potentials
  • Ways to add new dimensions to each therapy session and initiate lasting change using top-down, bottom-up, and horizontal methods

Easily and confidently incorporate these neuroscience techniques and tools into your very next treatment session!

Register now and join us in either New Haven, Providence or live online!

  3. Employ psychoeducation techniques that improve engagement in therapy by making neuroscience and neurobiology understandable for clients.
  4. Analyze how neural pathways regulating stress and reward are related to mental health disorders, and connect this information to your utilization of therapeutic interventions to reduce stress and manage addiction.
