The Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM) ® is an embodied model for reprocessing and reappraisal of the central details of trauma memories using a neurosequential approach layering somatic release, bilateral stimulation, visualization, resourcing and reframing in an integrative and structured manner to regulate the body, brain and mind simultaneously. This rich approach layers integrative techniques of bilateral stimulation, sensory processing, mindfulness, breath work, cognitive reframing, toning and vocalization, movement and somatic work, visualization, resource installation and parts integration work and has been used with great success in the treatment of complex trauma.
The Integrative Trauma Treatment Model (ITATM)® helps people to depotentiate trauma experiences and help people become embodied in a safe structured way. This training is open to coaches, counsellors and mental health professionals. In part 2 participants are trained to complete trauma processing using our highly effective Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM) ®. If you are looking to expand your trauma treatment repertoire this is the right resource for you! Join us to learn how to help heal life’s hurts and hearts.
Therapists around the world are learning the efficacy and power of this treatment model – and one of the best features for clients is that they DON’T NEED TO TALK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED! We have actively been using this model at our 2 treatment centres (@ATTCH Niagara and @Lori_Gill_Psychotherapy) with great efficacy for treating complex trauma. It is a highly effective and accelerated treatment model for treating the underlying issues causing the pain, addiction, suicide ideation, high risk behaviour etc. Using the Integrative Trauma and Attachment Treatment Model (ITATM)® we observe statistically and clinically significant reductions in suicide ideation, tension reduction behaviours (self-harm, addictions, high risk behaviours), anger, depression, anxiety, and dissociation are observed with the use of our treatment approach. These are areas that often impact daily life skills, education, employment, the ability to remain regulated, maintaining safe housing, utilization of high risk and crisis services, etc.
If you are ready to become trauma-informed or enhance your trauma treatment this training will help you to learn an effective and efficient model for doing so. A wide variety of continuing education options are also available online and soon will be launched in a new platform (www.attchacademy.com). Attachment and Trauma Treatment Centre for Healing (ATTCH) also offers custom trauma trainings and certification to meet your agency, community, or practice needs.
