You were trained in a modality. Maybe several.
But there are moments in session, you know exactly the ones, where the technique lands but nothing moves. Where a client understands their trauma intellectually and is still flooded by it. Where you apply the right intervention and still walk away wondering what you're missing.
Most clinical training teaches you what to do. Very little of it explains why it works, what's actually happening beneath the surface at the level of the brain, the body, and the relationship, and what to do when it doesn't work at all.
Without that deeper map, even the most skilled clinicians are working with fragments. And fragmented approaches produce fragmented results.
Interpersonal Neurobiology changes that.
In this cohort, built around the science and clinical application of healing trauma, you will leave with three things most clinicians never get from a training:
A precise map for assessment. Using the nine domains of integration, you will learn to identify exactly where chaos or rigidity is showing up in a client's life, which domain is blocked, and which intervention to reach for next.
A practice you can bring directly into session. The Wheel of Awareness helps clients differentiate their awareness from the contents of their awareness. Traumatic memory, shame states, overwhelming emotion no longer have to consume your client. They become points on a rim that can be observed, explored, and integrated.
The ability to read the nervous system in real time. Drawing on polyvagal theory, the window of tolerance, and the seven subcortical motivational networks, you will learn to track exactly what is happening in a client's body during a session. You will know when to push, when to hold, and when to simply stay present.
When these come together, something shifts.
You stop applying techniques to problems. You start working with people. You walk into any session, with any client, using any modality, and you understand the deeper pattern at work.
You also show up differently in the room. Because IPNB makes clear that the therapeutic relationship is not just a vehicle for technique.
It is the mechanism of change.
Join us for the upcoming cohort to find out how.
Dr. Dan Siegel's Healing Trauma Cohort begins July 6. Train directly with Dan and bring a framework into your practice that will serve every client you see for the rest of your career.

Trauma disrupts our integrative functioning, negatively impacting our emotional lives and core beliefs about ourselves, humanity, and the world around us. As a result, we are often faced with the non-integrative states of chaos and rigidity that make feeling joy and peace within ourselves challenging. We have difficulty in mutually rewarding relationships with others, and even to our inner sense of who we are when in chaotic or rigid states. When such a traumatic experience is unresolved, it includes a frequent state of dysregulation in which we move into chaos or rigidity and often live far from a central flow of harmony.
From an IPNB perspective, healing trauma means breaking this cycle of impaired integration in body and in relationships and moving toward healthy integration which accesses a more receptive state, one that facilitates inner clarity and opens to connection with individuals in more flexible and rewarding ways. By focusing on the Nine Domains of Integration–relationships, memory, narrative, states, bilateral, vertical, temporal, identity and consciousness–a comprehensive approach to cultivating resolution as a deep journey toward integration allows unresolved traumatic states to be healed and post traumatic growth to flourish as resilience is strengthened.
This course is an opportunity to learn from a master clinician about one of the most enduring mental health issues, unresolved trauma, and explore practical ways to recover, heal, and grow strength by moving integratively through it. In this course, you will learn about the neurobiology of trauma and the systems of the brain that affect how we experience its unresolved states and then move deeply toward resolution and growth. Dan Siegel grounds his teachings in poignant and clinically insightful examples that bring to life the IPNB concepts he discusses. You’ll learn in-depth and practical ways about the Nine Domains of Integration and how you can harness the power and potential of these to move yourself and others back into healthy states of integration and thriving.

How can we heal from trauma?
Using clinical examples from his four decades of medical practice and scientific synthesis of research on how trauma affects the mind, master teacher Dan Siegel will teach you an approach to healing based on the principles of Interpersonal Neurobiology (“IPNB”). In this course, you’ll learn about how trauma disrupts the healthy integration with the brain, the body, and our relationships as it sets the mind for unresolved states toward chaos and rigidity. Then, using the Nine Domains of Integration, Dan will give you practical exercises and insights into how we can move ourselves and others back into healthy connection with ourselves and the world around us through careful ways of differentiating and linking the distinct but interactive domains in our lives. This in-depth course will be valuable for clinicians and highly motivated learners alike.

Dan Siegel is the founder and director of education of the Mindsight Institute and founding co-director of the Mindful Awareness Research Center at UCLA, where he was also co-principal investigator of the Center for Culture, Brain, and Development and clinical professor at the School of Medicine.
An award-winning educator, Dan is the author of five New York Times bestsellers and other books which have been translated into over forty languages. He is the founding editor of the Norton Professional Series on Interpersonal Neurobiology, and has overseen the publication of over one hundred textbooks in this transdisciplinary framework focusing on the mind and mental health.
A graduate of Harvard Medical School, Dan completed his postgraduate training at UCLA specializing in pediatrics and adult, adolescent, and child psychiatry. He was trained in attachment research and narrative analysis through a National Institute of Mental Health research training fellowship focusing on how relationships shape our autobiographical ways of making sense of our lives and influence our development across the lifespan.
"[Dr. Siegel’s] course on Healing Trauma arrived in my life at the perfect time. [It] offered a ray of hope. I’ve been faithful to the 9 exercises [Dan] gives to enhance brain integration. It has clearly had a powerful impact on my healing. My brain must be integrating. At times I live such joy. I feel that I’m discovering a new life. Really, life can be like this? I had no idea. At 71 years old, I’m very happy I’m discovering this new way of being. My sisters and brothers have noticed a difference in me. Deeply grateful."

"Dan’s approach to conscious and embodied integration has opened new pathways of understanding for me. Participating online, I appreciated the rich video content and movement demonstrations, illuminating the comprehensive impact of Dan’s long-term personal practice. I strongly recommend his work. [His] exercises and suggested tools all invite creative application for individual clients, teams, and organizations who are living, learning, working, and relating at different developmental levels in this time of great change in all of our ecosystems—personal and planetary. Thank you!"
