Supporting your steps to trauma expertise

I would highly recommend this training. I understand the step by step process of work with complex PTSD clients much more clearly now. Good training environment online and lots of useful skills. Broken down into every day language and examples that clients could easily grasp and therapists can easily explain

Excellent interactive workshop. The most engaging online training experience that I have attended. really recommend the mix of up to date clinical skills and the chance to see this live with the simulated client demonstration. Great learning opportunity to discuss this material clinically with other clinicians and therapists.

I attended the PTSD Trauma & Beyond online course on Zoom and I felt I've gained so much useful and practical knowledge from it. I would highly recommend this workshop if you want to build your skills in the assessment and formulation of PTSD. It was very interactive and it had a good balance between theoretical and practical knowledge. I found the second part of the workshop very engaging. The actress was brilliant and it felt so real! I booked the PTSD masterclass workshop too. I am looking forward to attending this.

I attended the online version of this today. I’ve been on a fair number of online CPD courses since lockdown and can safely say that this is the most engaging and kept my attention span even online. The defining part had to be the use of an outstanding professional actor that we had as our client. This process enabled Heather (the facilitator) to demonstrate, then stop and pause the therapy to enable group discussion and direction of the processes that we had learnt earlier in the day. This brought the whole process to life and held my attention thought out the afternoon. This is the most unique, inspiring and immersive online workshop that I have attended. I want to book on the next workshop in the series but they are unfortunately fully booked so will wait for December. I had so many really relevant takeaways for my practice. well recommended.

The training was everything I was looking for. It included both theory and practice and I left feeling confident that I could work successfully and safely with trauma.
Heather was so lovely and knowledgable. Brilliant analogies and theory that can also be used in everyday therapy as well as trauma.
I will definitely consider attending more of her training in future.

The day was very informative, I have come away feeling more equipped to work with clients around trauma. Presented well which kept you interacted throughout.

This was an excellent course with a great balance of theoretical information and practical experiential learning. It included very helpful tips on describing why and how our brains respond as they do.
Heather made it easy to participate in discussions and in cleverly simulated practice sessions. I highly recommend the course. Thank you Heather and her team.

I have been working in social care for 25 years and this was one of the best workshops I have been on. The level of information was detailed, but
presented in such a way as to be most helpful in order to use at work, brilliant training! Thank you

I thoroughly recommend this training. Heather's interactive style gave clear and concise explanations of theory which made it understandable and relatable to practice with clients. There are many 'takeaway' tools and metaphors that I have already used in my work. I feel more confident working with trauma re-living in a safe and 'grounded in the present' way. All class contributions were heard and respected. This was an enjoyable as well as very educative learning experience.

I would highly recommend this workshop. To be given the opportunity to practice skliis with a 'client-actor' was extremely useful. It would appear other training providers do not provide this valuable experience. Heather has excellent delivery skills and has a special way of reinforcing learning.

I have learned so much about Trauma and how it affects the brain and the body from this course . The learning is so user friendly that I have been able to pass it onto my clients in an easily understood manner . Therapists are involved in practical discussion which also enhances the learning..
This is the first time in over 30 years of working in the field that I understand why people self- harm .
The actor on day 2 was fantastic and gave us a real sense of her "trauma".
OHP handouts are provided for everyone, so its easier to concentrate in session without having to take too many notes as there is so much info to take on board. As I am trying to reduce my paper stores, I scanned the handout , alternatively an emailed copy would have been as useful.

Very interactive workshop where I learned the Essentials of Trauma/ PTSD. Provided a good insight and understanding illustrated with concrete tools.
Definitely recommend it.

I thoroughly enjoyed attending this workshop, finding it practical and useful for my practice. Dr Sequeira is able to break down what we learnt into easy to understand topics, showing her experience and knowledge of the subject. The live role play was particularly cogent, the actor being a convincing client, and again helpful in bringing together the learnings taught throughout the day. The venue itself was easy to find, clean and inviting, and on a side note, the coffee served was very good. I would highly recommend this course for you to help start develop your understanding of trauma.

I found the simplification of how the brain works helpful and easy to remember.
The live client role play was very interesting but may be difficult to recall as was unsure of the structure i.e. objective of each section.

Overall it was helpful and informative and clear that Dr Sequeira is passionate and knowledable on this topic.

Heather delivered an outstanding course having the right mix of theory and real-world application. It was clear and very well structured. Thank you
