Do The Limits of Traditional Trauma Therapy burden you?

The Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist for Individual Clients (CCTSI) presented by Dr Robert Rhoton, Psy D., LPC, F.A.A.E.T.S.,  is a 3-day training designed to give the participant a working knowledge of how to engage in the process of trauma treatment.

Every day, mental health professionals face the heartache of watching clients continue to suffer despite using standard, pathology-focused treatments. The overwhelming sense of inadequacy, the frequent referrals, and the ever-present fear of failure can leave even the most dedicated therapist feeling isolated and drained. If you’ve ever wondered how to empower your clients—and yourself truly—with the skills and insights to foster genuine healing, you are not alone.

Imagine a new approach that honours your clients’ inner strengths and paves the way for lasting transformation. The CCTSI training manual by Dr. Robert Rhoton guides you away from merely “treating” trauma, inviting you to reframe your work from a place of resilience, self-regulation, and asset-based recovery.

This training is designed to improve the quality of treatment for clients who have a history of trauma, toxic stress, and repetitive adversity, and designed to give the participant a working knowledge of how to engage in the process of trauma treatment. There will be a focus on the active ingredients – the things that are common factors that help all treatment work become better and work more efficiently.

Clear Learning Objectives Tailored to Address Your Pain Points

During this training, you will:

1. Redefine Trauma: Learn to look beyond traditional psychiatric models. Understand trauma as a source of pain and a call to uncover hidden strengths and resilience.
2. Harness Neurobiology for Healing: Dive deep into the brain’s response to stress and trauma. Gain concrete tools to help clients establish self-regulation before processing dissociation.
3. Adopt a Salutogenic Approach: Shift your focus from pathology to wellness by embracing the Sense of Coherence (SOC) concepts – comprehensibility, manageability, and meaningfulness – as foundations for recovery.
4. Master Interoception and Self-Regulation Techniques: Discover practical, evidence-based interventions that help clients reconnect with their bodies and emotions, laying solid groundwork for healing.
5. Build Asset-Based Interventions: Learn how to identify and amplify your clients’ innate strengths to foster a narrative of recovery rather than a story of deficits.
6. Overcome Therapist Burnout: Develop strategies to combat moral distress and avoid the common pitfalls of referral-based care, empowering you to sustain your passion and practice.
