Trauma Training and Consultations

So many people asked for training in grief and trauma that we scheduled a full-day workshop for anyone interested, not just therapists, on Catherine’s last day in Addis. Catherin had about 35 people participate in her “Advanced Grief, Mourning and Trauma” workshop, which was received well and peppered with many questions from the participants. Hope For Children hosted the event, provided wonderful food and even kept their tent up from the Anniversary celebration so that we could house people comfortably outdoors.
After a very long day, Catherine boarded the plane late that night and left for the 20+ hour trip back to the US. I will continue to hold consultation groups daily for the 27 EMDR trained therapist to answer questions and enhance their understanding of what is a fairly complex new theoretical orientation for them. One more week with so much to do!
