About the Training
This 4-week (32 hours) course provides a comprehensive examination of DBT-PTSD based on a psycho-social model. Within this model, dysfunctional behaviours are understood as strategies to avoid or escape from trauma-associated primary emotions like powerlessness, threat, anxiety, disgust, humiliation or sexual arousal. The model posits that these emotions are corroborated by dysfunctional cognitive assumptions and dysfunctional behaviours such as self-injury, suicidal ideation, dissociation or intoxication and that problematic secondary emotions such as shame, guilt, self-hatred or chronic anger develop over time into problematic self-concepts which impair quality of life.
Target Audience
Multi-disciplinary mental health professionals interested in treating complex PTSD using evidence-based principles and procedures. Basic knowledge of DBT is recommended.

Register to The Restorative Wellness Retreat at Lake Louise That Takes Place On May 29th-June 2nd, 2023
There’s still time to register for our restorative wellness retreat at Lake Louise!
Lori Gill, International Trauma Specialist and Lisa Scandolari, Yoga and Mindfulness Specialist will guide participants through this immersive trauma, mindfulness and yoga wellness training and retreat. Take a deeper dive into the neurobiology of trauma and stress, the nervous system and applied and immersive techniques for promoting regulation. The body holds memory of trauma and as a result engaging the body is critical for healing trauma and stress and promoting well-being. Rebalancing is so very needed, now more than ever, for helpers but the retreat is open to anyone looking to focus on wellness and emotional regulation. We will explore leading edge approaches with hands on access to treatment resources such as neurofeedback, biofeedback, virtual reality, noninvasive brain stimulation etc. After the whirlwind and busyness of the pandemic we need time to rejuvenate, nourish and heal. I do hope you can join us. This will be a very small retreat to support the experiential nature of it.
As an added bonus participants will also have access to a wellness platform as a gift to participants which will include access to part 1 of ATTCH’s trauma and attachment core training (prerecorded) which is a $480+ value and they will also have access to several of Lisa’s videos with guided practices and several other guided practices for continued use as preferred.

Level 1 Satir Transformational Systemic Therapy Training Program (STST)
Family Therapy Training
Satir Transformational Systemic Therapy (STST) Level I training program is for practicing counsellors and therapists, and for other helping professionals who are presently working with clients. The focus of the program is on learning and practicing Satir Transformational Systemic Therapy to bring about deep and lasting change with individuals, couples and families.
This program is very experiential, with lecturettes, small group discussions, structured exercises, demonstrations, and skill practice sessions as part of the training. Participants will be required to work in triads between sessions to practice what they have been learning in the program.
Satir’s Transformational Systemic Therapy Model (STST) is unique in encompassing both the intrapsychic and interactive components of therapy. Much therapy of the past has been focused only on clients’ behaviour, cognition or affect. This model is focused on the whole human being, bringing about transformational change by tapping the internal resources and universal yearnings of individuals within their personal, family, and social systems. The process requires that the therapist has a high level of therapeutic competence and congruence.
STST processes are supported by recent therapeutic and neurobiological research. Evidence-based research supports therapeutic processes that are experiential, systemic, positively directional and change focused in providing neurological changes in clients. The model’s focus on the congruence of the therapist is supported in research supporting how important it is that therapists provide the conditions for attachment, hope, positive possibilities and safety in order for clients to achieve deep and lasting change.
The experiential processes provided by the training program give participants the opportunity to have both personal and professional growth. The program will provide several therapy demonstrations and skill development opportunities.
Counsellors and therapist will learn how to use experiential process throughout their therapy sessions to access healing Life Energy; explore and facilitate change in clients’ intrapsychic and relational systems; make contact with clients’ internal experience and create safety quickly and deeply; surface clients’ survival communication and coping patterns and help clients experientially choose more positive possibilities; collaboratively with the client, begin to set positively directional, intrapsychic therapeutic goals for change; help clients access, accept and utilize their internal strengths and resources in the change process; map the internal processes of clients and help them access and change their behaviours, feelings, perceptions and expectations and help clients integrate and maintain their changes

Advanced Applications of Satir Transformational Systemic Therapy (STST)
SIP’s Advanced Applications of STST program is for advanced Satir Model practitioners. While most Satir Model practice has been at the process level, advanced practitioners need to incorporate the deeper levels of meaning and energy in their work. We will focus on how to bring about change at these levels with our therapeutic clients.
This program will look at aspects of therapy where clients are working with impacts of depression, anxiety, pain, attachment and Use of Self. We can understand and work with individuals beyond the D.S.M. (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of APA), looking at working successfully with the root causes instead of symptoms.
Let’s go back to the roots of the Satir Model and explore what is now possible with all the increased understanding of the healing process.
This program will also look at how the Satir Model has changed, evolved, and developed over time, as well as looking at what has been added from other schools and authorities to mix with the Satir Model.
We will have eight days including evening trio work, “becoming more fully human” and deepening our therapeutic work with clients.

Embedding Sleep: A Targeted and Pragmatic Program for Hypnotherapists to help their Clients Sleep
Hypnosis is often used to treat sleep problems, but most published scripts are targeted towards simple insomnia – difficulty falling asleep in the absence of significant sleep or co-morbid mental health challenges. Most of our clients are much more complex, but few doctors or therapists have more than superficial knowledge of sleep and little or no training in the treatment of sleep disorders.
Embedding Sleep is a 7 week, online course that offers an introduction to sleep disorders (both primary and secondary to other mental health challenges), research about the effectiveness of hypnotic strategies for treatment, tools for evaluating sleep, and scripts to address specific sleep problems. In addition, you will learn practical, psychoeducational, and hypnotic strategies to treat complex sleep problems.
Cost: $397 + applicable tax

The Certified Executor Advisor Designation Program (CEA)
The Certified Executor Advisor designation program (CEA) is appropriate for counsellors working with Canadians to help them through the myriad of emotions and challenges that may present on the death of a loved one, the stress of being overwhelmed with work they’re not prepared for, simmering conflicts with spouses and siblings, financial problems arising from inheritances, risk of personal litigation and those working in mediation for any of the above.
CEA candidates come from the seventeen professions executors may turn to in the course of their duties. This means there are sixteen professions working with executors and their families across Canada looking for counselling services when problems arise. Naturally, they’re looking for counsellors who understand executor related issues.
Visit https://www.cicea.ca/en/CCPA to register and receive the CCPA member discount of $200 off the regular price of $1,495. Join us by becoming a CEA and join an amazing business network helping Canadians.
FEI International Crisis Responder Network Training and CEU’s
As an international leader in crisis management services, we regularly recruit trauma specialists to join our crisis responder network. Crisis responders participate in short-term contract work in response to mass casualty events such as natural disasters, terrorist attacks and aviation accidents.
To become part of the network, individuals must be trained by FEI and will be required to attend the FEI Crisis Responder Training. This training is facilitated via webinar and those who complete the training are eligible to earn up to 8 continuing education units (CEU’s).
When deployed to provide support during a crisis, the trauma specialists will be compensated at an hourly rate ranging from $75-$90 USD/hour (depending on the level of support required for those impacted and as requested by our customer).
If you are interested in learning more about the training and the opportunity to become a member of our International Crisis Responder Network, please contact us at:414-359-6571 or you may see details on the training and register at the link below:

FEI Behavioral Health has been a leader in providing humanitarian support for over 40 years to our customers, their family members and, their communities following a critical event. At times the crisis may require organizational support such as an on-site debriefing. At other times, we may be asked to provide support on a larger scale due to a mass casualty event. In those situations, basic psychological first aid is provided.
FEI has experienced an increase in the requests for critical incident support from our customers. Additionally, with the escalation and threat of terrorism and natural disasters, FEI would like to invite your agency, and your clinicians, to join our elite network focused on providing the necessary support at the most critical times.

August 19th – Breaking the ADHD Code: A Novel, Neurologically Based Treatment Program for ADHD
Apart from using medication, treatment for ADHD symptoms has largely focused on symptom management. But even with medication, many people with ADHD continue to struggle with anxiety, conflict, emotional regulation, behavioural addictions, and health management. Many people unconsciously use adrenaline-producing behaviours to increase dopamine functioning, a pattern that may be effective in the short term but is quite destructive in the long term. This pattern has been conceptualized into the Adrenaline Addiction in ADHD model. (https://aaa.cambiumed.ca)
“Breaking the ADHD Code” is a program for therapists to learn the Adrenaline Addiction in ADHD model, and how to implement it with clients. The program involves approximately 6 hours of videos, which are to be previewed before the webinar, and a full day live webinar. There is also a follow-up two hour webinar three weeks after the initial webinar to help implement the program. For more information, please visit https://cambiumed.ca and click on the Breaking the ADHD Code logo.
