Applied Neuroscience for Trauma Healing Certificate
Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Applied Neuroscience for Trauma Healing Certificate
Learn how trauma shapes the brain, body, and sensory systems, and translate neuroscience into practical clinical application.
October 24 – November 22, 2026
Live Online via Zoom
30-Hour Certificate | 18 Live Sessions | 12 CEUs Available
Join Dr. Kate Truitt alongside leading experts in trauma and neuroscience for The Embody Lab’s Applied Neuroscience for Trauma Healing Certificate.
This experiential training explores how trauma reorganizes the brain, body, and sensory self, giving practitioners a framework for understanding not only what is happening in the nervous system, but how to respond with greater precision in clinical practice.
Dr. Kate Truitt's Sessions
Dr. Kate will bring her expertise in applied neuroscience and trauma treatment to several sessions throughout the program.
