We are truly thankful to all of the people who supported our mission of bringing this to practitioners worldwide through their purchase of a Gold Package.
Now I’d like to hear from you – how will you be using the ideas from the Advanced Master Program on the Treatment of Trauma in your work with clients? Please leave a comment in the space below (and feel free to share where you’re from, if you’d like).
Thank you for this. So glad that you have helped to progress the knowledge, treatments and recognition of past trauma experienced in the here and now for so many clients. When I think back to the days when even PTSD in military, police and other emergency services. I have been epousing for so long that long term exposure to abuse trauma for adopted people who were constantly told “they are lucky” and “should be grateful someone took them in” and the disconnect / disassociation and CPTSD this created for adopted people. Thank you for continuing this work and challenging the norms.
Thank you so much for this wonderful program full of ideas related to cause and effect, but ultimately why we do this work overall. I was especially interested in the focus on how reatlionships/social engagement are affected, and I expect to refer to it often as I work with my clients going forward. I am also grateful to have the gold package materials to refer back to as questions arise.
I really appreciate being able to listen at the time of broadcast. I’m not a therapist but a survivor who really benefits from hearing and understanding more and more about myself and trauma. (I no longer work and couldn’t afford to purchase the classes.)
Thank you~
Does NICABM offer (or suggest) a community for facilitating discussion of trauma healing? If anyone is interested in connecting, I am on instagram @jeffop72
It would be nice if a further reduced fee for the Master Trauma Therapy
would be helpful. Those of us living Social Security would like the education but cannot afford.
Thank you. I’m not a therapist but a trauma survivor myself and I really really appreciate the material as even though I would love to buy a gold membership it’s not possible for me at this time.
Thank you for the great job you are all doing.
Best regards
The resources and information you shared is benefiting not just my clients But myself also. Thank you
Ruth Wardak, Life Strategist, Therapy Coach
Thank you so much for bringing together your expertise and sharing it with the world. I have, like many, gained many gems that I can put into practice. I will tune in next time and continue to recommend you to my colleagues.
I think this was an informative and very well done program. You have woven together ideas and perspectives from many experts in this field in a way that is both clear and promotes integration of the ideas.
Bravo!
Congratulations! You are a hardworking and globally focused team! I’m very proud of you all and for the kind and generous opportunity you have provided for so many countries. This is especially beneficial for those who would not otherwise have access to such fabulously engaging and up to the minute scientific information.
The world is suffering with pain, fear and trauma in various ways. And through your generosity a little hope has been offered. It is for all the world’s best interest to live in a socially undivided manner.
Bless you all!

The gift you gave us all by putting this information out there at no cost is one that I will treasure for years to come because no one has ever given me anything since I began working in the behavioral health field. We give so much of ourselves and carry much of our clients’ pain. This pandemic, along with all of the crisis mental/behavioral health situations it triggered, has left some of us emotionally exhausted, with symptoms of job-related compassion fatigue and vicarious traumatization plus our own pandemic-related anxiety. The opportunity to participate in this series was exactly what I needed to “refuel,” re-energize, and renew our commitment to helping.
Thank you so much for all your efforts!
I purchased the last Trauma training and found it so helpful!
Thank you for this class. My clients are already reaping the benefits of new ways I’ve learned to treat trauma.
The series was absolutely wonderful and very helpful with all my counseling clients. It was fascinating how I was able to use so many sentence or paragraph words of wisdom to help clients resonate with their issues. I am very grateful to the amazing staff of presenters, and for the idea that this wisdom is traveling world wide. With much gratitude.

I’m so glad my Ukrainian colleagues joined in, and I hope there will be more next time. I will certainly get the word out. They have told me that they very much appreciated the opportunity.
I hope that you look into how more non-English-speakers could join in through close captioning or something.
Your programs are exceptional.
Thank you

I am a retired pediatrician whose main interest during my practice years was developmental/behavioral pediatrics. And I have a very personal interest in your work as I have personally dealt with my own childhood issues of shame and emotional neglect, as well as the emotional issues of one of our grown children. So, while I will not be using these skills with any therapy clients, I am very appreciative of these insights for my own healing and that of my family. Thank you for your generous spirits in getting this work out broadly! Kathy Mezoff
I am really pleased to re-cap and extend the research and my knowledge of Mind-Body psychotherapy. Encouraged by my own personal journey through therapy I studied Psychology and Counselling and became aware of the interactive play between the two. I learned to ‘stay with’ feelings to ameliorate my emotions and wrote my Master’s Dissertation on the subject. There has been such an expansion of learning since, and Peter Levine was an inspiration to me then. Thank you for enabling me to extend my learning through this programme. Although I retired from Counselling when my parents were ill, I am still passionate about learning more. Being retired precludes the expense of paying for this ongoing knowledge so I am especially grateful to you for providing me with the opportunity to find out more, and, to peripherally keep up to date. Thank you.
It’s gratifying to know that this vital information is being shared in so many places by so many people!
Like many pebbles tossed into the water, the ripples from this work will continue to spread wider and farther.
Linda P. Carroll, Ph.D. Educator
The professional level of the offered content was really insightfull. Especially the refinement of the different Freeze responses. I’d like to get deeper understanding when dealing with shame induced by the “please and appease” response.
The fact that this program was offered to a wide audience without any up-front requirement to pay motivated me to sponser with the purchase of a gold package. Keep on healing.
Ed – Netherlands
Thank you I am always grateful for the things I learn here. It is very important for me to keep up to date with new theories or methods.
i did not purchase the Gold pack this time however, I do support you guys regularly.
Thank you again.
Jackie UK
Thank you so much. I learned a LOT and it’s a life changing opportunity to heal and help others heal. I’m sorry I couldn’t get the gold package at this time; But please keep me on your email list
Keep up this important work

The course is perfect. simple and easy to follow. pleasant to listen or read. It meets most practioners where they might be with individual patients and provides the technique (yet theoretical) to guide interventions. It enabled me to better integrate material I’ve been working on for the past 7 years. Thank you so very much.
John Russell MD
This program was very informative and enlightening for my own trauma/grief work. Thank you all for such an excellent presentation.
I’m a mom of an adult man with autism
& severe ptsd with disassociate behaviors and explosive behavior. Unfortunately, having autism “ locks” him out of neurotypical patient services. I was unable to watch the video, is there a way to rewatch it without cost? Does anyone know where we could go for help? We live in south jersey.
Thank you Ruth for making these webinars available to so many people, myself being one of them. I am a retired psychotherapist but work a few hours for a charity. Hence, have not been able to purchase the package even at reduced rate. I found the way you presented these webinars, where your presenters offer their experiences of working and your summing up easy to grasp and understand. I could not attend all the sessions however, I learnt a lot. Thank you again.
I purchased the package but have yet to listen. Is there a support community to encourage me to get started? And to keep going too!
Im a mexican pschotherapist. I have an MD in addictions. Unfortunatle its impossible for me to pay the fee.
Economicaly its very hard, specialy if I have to pay in US dollars.
I have to thank you for the opportunity for being able watching it for free. I did. And I will try to implement it on my practice.
I am impressed and very happy about the outreach! Congratulations!
I am so grateful to all of you for putting this amazing and helpful program together! Glad I spent the money for Gold Package!
I so appreciate the opportunities you offer. Your courses have helped me tremendously in my quest to understand and resolve Complex PTSD from severe child maltreatment and continuing trauma.
Access to my PFC is still limited so it takes a lot of hard work to integrate new learning. But I’m enriched even if I come away with just one key new idea.
Thank you so much for making these concepts and experts available to so many. You’ve played an enormous role in helping me save my own life.
Thank you so much for this amazing and useful webminars
Thank you once again Ruth for offering such high quality training for free… NICABM are my absolutely favourite webinars
I attended some of the free sessions you shared. Amazing experience and regretted not being able to fully register. Once the country starts again and employment is restored, I am planning to join. Thanks for hi ring me the opportunity to participate. Beautiful conference.
I loved these programmes. I learned so much and have been able to apply what I have learned. I continue to learn and as one thing becomes familiar and part of my portfolio, other aspects come into focus with an “oh! that’s what it means”.
I have also been introduced to experts in the field and that has given me confidence about where I can find more information and advice.
Hi Ruth I wish I could have been 1 more you could have added to UK number, unfortunately even at reduced price it is out of my price range. I loved your course on Abandonment so helpful. I work in private practice offering affordable therapy hence cost issue. Hope in future to be able to access other courses. Many thanks . Jane
Jane you just said everything I was going to say, thank you…
Ruth, please can you make these programs more affordable, I feel that so many ppl are missing good opportunities because of $$
Hi Jane and Julie,
Thank you for taking part in the free broadcasts of this program over the past few weeks. I’m happy to say that since you took part in the free broadcasts you are represented in the numbers above. We’re so glad you joined us, and thrilled that we had so many of your fellow countrymen from the UK and Australia join in.
