Trauma-informed Treatment and Clinician Self-care

The work of trauma treatment can be transformative—but also quietly devastating. Clinicians often carry the invisible wounds of those they serve, putting their own well-being at risk in the process. This course offers a roadmap to healing for both client and clinician, rooted in resilience and trauma-informed care.

In today’s demanding clinical environments, behavioral health professionals need tools that do more than just treat trauma—they need strategies that sustain their own wellness. This self-paced training provides those very tools, supporting both effective treatment and ethical, enduring practice.
