Ready to refresh your clinical lens and spark new inspiration in your trauma care?
Join us for an immersive new session of Clinical Conversations, hosted by Dr. Sabrina N'Diaye.

This isn't about rigid continuing education credits or theoretical frameworks. It's about real conversations with trauma therapists who understand the complexity of healing work, and who recognize that true recovery often involves the spiritual dimensions of human experience.

Discover how spirituality, ritual, breathwork, and meaning-making can enhance your evidence-based trauma interventions, without compromising clinical integrity or imposing beliefs on clients.

In this conversation, we explore:

Explore the art and science of integrating spirituality into trauma-aligned methods, guided by renowned clinician and peacebuilder Dr. Sabrina N’Diaye. This Clinical Conversation will tackle:

  • Why spirituality, ritual, and meaning-making can transform trauma recovery (and how to do it ethically)
  • Understanding the neurobiology of spirituality’s role in healing trauma
  • Tools for sensitive, inclusive integration, whether your client is religious, spiritual, or none of the above
  • Reflecting on your own spiritual lens to strengthen your presence as a healer
  • Practical tips and real clinical examples: ritual, breathwork, and narrative as therapy
  • Navigating boundaries: cultural humility, ethics, and supporting clients from all backgrounds
