Advanced Training

  • Evicting Toxic Shame Virtual

    • This is an advanced EMDR training for helping clients with complex trauma and early attachment issues who experience toxic shame as an underlying identity, which is extremely difficult to change. The workshop includes background, conceptualization, and a step-by-step procedure that expands on the desensitization phase of EMDR. Two sessions of practicum are included to help clinicians integrate the process.

    • Created by Phoebe Bergvall, co-facilitated with Laurie Colson-Young

Workshops

 

Are you feeling a way about a thing?  Let’s explore it!

The Neurobiology of You Workshop

 

The primary goal of this workshop is to give you the human (who happens to be a therapist) the opportunity to take a deep dive into your own neural development over your lifespan.  From the view overlooking Pismo Beach at the Sea Venture hotel, we will explore how our nervous systems developed, and how they are working for us in our current environments.

​

We will be using big groups, small groups and individual work to explore our own neurobiology, to gain a deeper understanding of how we function in this world. 

Much of this workshop will be experiential and interactive, with the intention of understanding how neurobiology works for all of us, and how yours specifically developed for your own survival.

​

This workshop will be led by me, a human, who is also a therapist, that has worked with many clinicians over the years and has an inside perspective of how our world view is shaped by the nervous systems that are around us, as well as within us.

​

I would love to have you come and explore, if you are ready to take a deep dive into who you are, underneath all the things you do.
