Four Cycles Institute level 1 Expressive Arts Therapy and Level and Trauma Informed Practice Training with Dr. Cathy Malchiodi; Ph.D.

Survivors of complex trauma; interpersonal violence and multiple adverse events; often benefit from non-verbal approaches to restore a sense of safety; regulation and resilience. In this four-session course; participants will learn effective and innovative approaches to repair and resolve acute distress and complex trauma. Each session explains key foundations to address traumatic stress through methods that practitioners can apply immediately to work with clients to repair trauma and restore the Self. Sessions include lectures; slide presentations and short films followed by hands-on-practices sessions.
