We are thrilled to once again host Dr. Alan E. Fruzzetti, clinical psychologist, professor, and researcher in the field of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Following his two-day CMBH training in 2021 the call for his return was loud and clear. We’re delighted to be making his thought leadership available to our community of practice once again. Dr. Fruzzetti will provide a two-day online training, “DBT with Reactive or High Conflict Couples”.

We are thrilled to announce our Spring 2023 training will be hosted by Deborah A. Dana, LCSW. Join us for this two-day training, Navigating the Nervous System: A Polyvagal Approach to Working with Complex Trauma.

MSC is a skill-based program offered in a group format. Program activities include meditation, short talks, experiential exercises, group discussion, and home practices. MSC is a skills group rather than a retreat. The goal is for participants to directly experience self-compassion and learn practices that evoke self-compassion in daily life.

This 4-week course, offered through the Centre for MindBody Health, provides a comprehensive examination of DBT-PTSD based on a psycho-social model. Within this model, dysfunctional behaviors are understood as strategies to avoid or escape from trauma-associated primary emotions like powerlessness, threat, anxiety, disgust, humiliation, or sexual arousal.
