Discover how to use EFIT, CBT, IFS, Somatic interventions, & more to help clients heal their wounded attachment to improve outcomes

The truth is, you can try any approach with clients, but if you do NOT address their wounded attachment, they will never feel safe enough to fully engage...

And without trust in the therapy room, even your most heroic efforts will fail.

However, wounded attachment can be so subtle that it's difficult for both you and your client to recognize.

That's why, in our all-new online course, world-renowned researcher and clinician Sue Johnson leads eight premier trauma and attachment experts, including Dr. Kevin Keith, Dr. Pam Stavropoulos, and others...

In sharing evidence-based treatment strategies including EFIT, CBT, IFS, Gottman Method Couples Therapy, Somatic interventions, Family Systems Therapy, and more...

That can help you identify and work with subtle attachment wounds that undermine therapy.

Not only that, but this training meets the educational requirements to become a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP-I)... And we'll pay your certification application fee ($99.99 value)!

Register today to discover how to integrate this key element into your practice so you know exactly what to do to help your most challenging trauma clients heal.
