Description

Every therapist dreams of a shortcut to healing for their traumatized clients …

One that provides the deep, transformational change that trauma processing can produce …

… but without the lengthy treatment period and the risks of re-traumatization.

And nowhere does the need for efficient therapy feel more urgent than in situations of attachment trauma, with clients who had to endure betrayal in their most important relationships.

Now you can get relief for your clients faster than ever with Super Resourcing (SR). Rooted in the same powerful principles as EMDR, IFS, and attachment theory, SR focuses on strengthening your client’s internal resources and helping wounded parts feel safe, supported and integrated – rather than on the trauma itself.

The result? Less dissociation and fragmentation. Attachment repair of wounded parts. Increased well-being and a new positive personal narrative. All without revisiting distressing trauma memories.

Learn SR directly from its developer, Alison Teal, MFT, a certified EMDRIA therapist and consultant who will give you step-by-step guidance so that you can integrate this powerful approach into the therapy modalities that you’re already using – whether that’s EMDR, IFS, CBT, MI, or any other framework.

No previous training in EMDR or IFS required – you’ll learn everything you need to know to add SR to your treatment plan so you can:

  • Create the safety, protection and guidance that are so critical to good therapy
  • Reduce trauma symptoms without processing trauma directly
  • Provide gentle, effective attachment repair for wounded parts
  • Guide clients in creating their own corrective emotional environment of installed resources with accompanying positive sensations, emotions and cognitions

Plus, you’ll get a chance to learn from immersive case studies, video of real SR sessions, and your own experience of SR via a group guided session.

Don’t wait – PURCHASE TODAY to learn this groundbreaking directly from its developer!
