A Trauma-Informed, Neurobiologically Grounded Training for Mental Health Professionals Non-Suicidal Self-Injury (NSSI) is often misunderstood, stigmatized, or oversimplified as “attention-seeking” or impulsive. This training goes deeper. Join us for an immersive, skill-focused course that moves beyond symptom management to uncover the psychological, neurobiological, and sensory drivers of self-injury. Through interactive learning, real case studies, and hands-on practice, you’ll learn how to identify the function of NSSI and apply targeted, evidence-based interventions that support safety, connection, and long-term healing. You’ll walk away with practical tools—from DBT-based chain analysis and crisis skills to sensory regulation strategies informed by occupational therapy and trauma theory. Whether you work with adolescents, adults, or neurodivergent populations, this course will equip you to feel more confident, compassionate, and competent in treating one of the most complex and emotionally charged behaviors in clinical practice. --You’ll Learn To: -- * Understand the neurobiology of pain, dissociation, and emotional dysregulation * Identify the sensory and psychological functions of NSSI * Apply DBT skills like TIPP, STOP, and Chain Analysis with nuance * Integrate trauma-informed and sensory-based interventions * Confidently support clients through recovery and relapse prevention Who Should Attend: Licensed clinicians, pre-licensed professionals, school counselors, OTs, and other providers working in mental health or trauma recovery.
