🧠Trauma doesn’t heal through insight alone—it heals through the nervous system. In this 2-Day Workshop, Deb Dana guides clinicians through a practical, trauma-informed application of Polyvagal Theory—offering a clear autonomic roadmap to safety, connection, and healing. Built on the groundbreaking work of Stephen Porges, this training helps you move beyond cognitive approaches and work directly with the autonomic nervous system, where trauma truly lives. You’ll learn how to: Understand and explain Polyvagal Theory in client-friendly language Track autonomic states and recognize patterns of shutdown, mobilization, and safety Support clients in reshaping survival responses and reducing dissociation Use the Social Engagement System to foster co-regulation and connection Apply nervous-system-based interventions to establish safety before trauma processing Through case examples, clinical tools, and experiential practices, Deb Dana shows you how to become a skilled co-regulator, helping clients move out of despair and isolation and back into presence, resilience, and relationship. Designed for trauma-informed therapists who want structure, clarity, and ethical application, this workshop equips you to confidently integrate Polyvagal Theory into assessment, treatment planning, and everyday clinical work. A nervous-system-first approach to trauma—clear, compassionate, and clinically grounded.
