Clinical Conversations
Collective Dysregulation: Practicing Trauma Therapy in Chaotic Times with Lisa Hayes
Live: Wednesday August 20th from 12 pm - 1 pm MTN Denver
Therapists aren’t immune to the chaos. The same systems, crises, and global stressors that impact our clients are also shaping our own nervous systems—and the therapy room. In this Clinical Conversation, Lisa Hayes invites us to name and explore what it means to do trauma work amid collective dysregulation.
Together, we’ll look at how societal upheaval, burnout, and vicarious trauma show up in clinical practice. Lisa offers a grounded, honest lens on how therapists can stay regulated enough to hold space, even when the world feels anything but.
This isn’t about pushing through. It’s about resourcing ourselves and each other—so we can keep doing the work with clarity, integrity, and care.
