When part of your client wants to heal and another part shuts therapy down the moment it matters…

That isn't resistance. It's fragmentation.

Clients can understand their trauma, say "I know it wasn't my fault," and want change. Yet the moment they feel threatened, shame floods in or protector parts hijack the session.

Until those parts feel safe, therapy stalls, no matter how skilled the clinician.

In this FREE live online training, Dr. Janina Fisher teaches the missing stabilization first approach that allows trauma therapy to move forward.

Drawing on more than 30 years of clinical experience, Dr. Fisher shows you how to work with trauma symptoms not as pathology to eliminate, but as protective survival responses to understand and stabilize.

Approached this way, sessions stop feeling unpredictable. You know what's happening in the moment and exactly what to do next.

Real therapeutic work becomes possible without retraumatization.

Based on Dr. Fisher's new book, Embracing Our Fragmented Selves, you won't just learn concepts. You'll receive a toolbox of evidence-based parts work interventions you can use right away to work with the fragmented inner world of your complex trauma clients.

This is a one-time, live training with restricted replay access…and a limited capacity.

Register today and learn how to keep trauma therapy moving forward.

About Embracing Our Fragmented Selves

Trauma fragments the self, leaving behind parts of us that carry fear, rage, shame, hopelessness, and despair. In Embracing Our Fragmented Selves, internationally renowned trauma therapist Dr. Janina Fisher offers a clear and compassionate approach to working with these parts and restoring a sense of inner harmony.

Grounded in structural dissociation theory, parts work, and sensorimotor psychotherapy, this workbook teaches trauma survivors to:

  • Understand their symptoms as expressions of different parts
  • Notice, unblend from, and befriend traumatized parts
  • Recognize self-destructive behaviors as the behavior of protector parts
  • Offer reparative experiences to wounded young parts

Whether you’re a trauma survivor or therapist, this book serves as a reminder that every part of us, no matter how wounded or extreme, is deserving of care. Healing begins when we meet those parts with support, appreciation, and acceptance.
