Supporting your steps to trauma expertise

I would have no hesitation in recommending this course to anyone who wanted to learn, or even upscale their knowledge on PTSD and trauma.

I thought DR Sequeira’s delivery was outstanding and very informative. I thought I had a good understanding of PTSD and I learned so much more. I loved Heather’s confidence in her delivery and she really knows her stuff. I wasn’t sure if it was going to be a day’s lecture and how I was going to deal with that, but it was very interactive and we were encouraged to take part, but there was no pressure if anyone didn’t want to speak up.

I loved that we were split into groups to do some work, which gave me a chance to meet other people and have the most amazing discourse too. I will definitely be attending more workshops with Heather as it was seriously one of the best one’s I have ever been to.. If you’re in any doubt whether to book a course, go for it as Heather is a master in her field.

Thank you for the most amazing day

Ive got so much out of this unit and the course in general. The training was accessible without jargon and the use of an actor for the real life scenario really helped to bring the skills home. Most excellent course. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to build up more skills in the field

Excellent training in that it blended both theory, clear analogies useful for psychoeducation, and also gave us a chance to practice our learned skills with a real live actor. Heather is to the point and it is clear that she has a wealth of knowledge within the field of trauma.

This was hands down one of the best training courses I've been on. Heather brought a great balance of up-to-date research, theory, personal clinical experiences and practice to the training. The style, pace, engaging metaphors and analogies as well as working with an incredible method actor to role play an assessment, reliving and reliving with cognitive updates with was brilliant. Thank you ever so much for the training, it's one that will definitely stick with me throughout my career! I highly recommend!

I am so glad I have found this course (from a previous recommendation). This has been the best trauma workshop I have been on, some great detailed psycho education in an easy to digest format I can used with clients, along with a clear, concise, yet malleable format I can use with clients. The role play activity (with an actor) was great and I loved the way we could flexibly interact and apply skills when we were comfortable. I can't wait to join up on the next workshop for c-ptsd & disassociation! Thank you.

An incredibly valuable and practical workshop on PTSD. I found the focus on formulation really useful as well as the emphasis on designing the alliance and communicating effectively with clients. The use of actors to bring the role play to life with active participation from delegates really kept the focus. As someone who delivers online training and has also been a consumer of too much of it this year I thought Heather's style was superb, gently provocative to ensure participation, yet she also manages to create an intimate space in which clinicians feel safe and are encouraged to test hypotheses and deepen their learning.

A really helpful overview and seeing it in practice was very useful. Have some great foundations.

Really informative training, interactive and left with some useful tools for clinical practice.

Really helpful master class - great overview of TF-CBT but with a focus on areas that often overlooked or not done well by clinicians which I found very helpful. Went into more depth in particular techniques or ideas than I’ve had in previous training and really practical and useful tips. The use of an actor was great and really enabled you to focus on the techniques and especially valuable to watch modelling of the techniques with the actor.

This course offered the right balance between theory and practical training. Especially observing the skills in a life like therapy session with an actor was educational. I signed up to the course to gain confidence in working in the field of trauma in my upcoming job and got exactly what I was looking for.

This workshop is extremely well organised and blends theory and practical skills in a way that enhanced my learning no end. Heather is knowledgeable and her warm delivery manner encourages course participants to engage and ask questions throughout. The practical elements of the course built strongly on the theory and throughout the day, opportunities to use these skills were offered. I will have no hesitation in returning to complete more of Heather's workshops in the future.

This is the best training course I have done. I have come away with many clinically relevant tools to put into practice and I feel prepared and confident to do so. The teaching of theory is made easy to access, is highly interactive and enjoyable. The actor helps bring the theory to life. I have recommended this course to colleagues and my supervisor!

Really great course for developing knowledge and recapping theory with regards the affect of trauma on the brain and memory processing.
Excellent teaching of techniques to help with PTSD. The course is really interactive and worth every penny.
Looking forward to signing up for the complex trauma one

Heather is extremely professional and knowledgeable. The workshop is an excellent, very well structured and it gives you a lot of tools to work with PTSD. I strongly recommend it.

The 2 days course was comprehensive and useful. I particularly liked the client work on the 2nd day which brought all the work from the 1st day alive.
