Decolonized Trauma-Informed Practice for Naturopathic Physicians & Healthcare Professionals
650
Event Details
Your training prepared you to treat symptoms—this course prepares you to hold people.
Enhance your capacity to create safer, more effective healing environments.
This certificate course is about cultivating safety. Trauma-informed care isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a necessity for ethical, effective, and lasting patient outcomes.
This course will give you the tools to create a practice where every patient feels safe, seen, and empowered—without burning yourself out in the process.
This course is not about diagnosing or treating trauma. You will not be expected—or taught—how to identify, label, or “fix” trauma in your patients. That’s outside the scope of this training.
This is a four week certificate program for Naturopathic Physicians and Healthcare Professionals.
Each session is three hours facilitated live over Zoom. There will be no recordings.
Approved for 12 CE credits (Category G) for Naturopaths with the College of Complimentary Health Professionals of BC.
Certificate Cost: $1111+GST
Early bird investment: $650 + GST
