TIST Level 1 (German)

Hosted by: Fortschritte Hamburg

TIST Level 1 begins on April 9th, 2026.

The Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment model is a trauma-informed parts model that integrates principles and techniques drawn from Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, clinical hypnosis, and cognitive restructuring methods. It offers a clear, practical, and neurobiologically grounded path to healing. By re-framing extreme behaviors and inner fragmentation as protective responses to trauma, it combats shame and self-loathing, and it changes the client’s relationship to the symptoms.

TIST is designed to work with clients who have experienced prolonged trauma, especially in early life. These clients often suffer from emotional flooding, shame, dissociation, and extreme inner conflict. Many are caught in cycles of suicidality, addiction, or self-harm.

TIST helps clients recognize their symptoms as adaptive responses to trauma held by fragmented parts—and teaches them to relate to those parts with compassion, rather than fear or shame.

Free Webinar: Ask Me Anything about TIST

Hosted by: Academy of Therapy Wisdom

This Is Your Chance To Get All Your Questions Answered…

Are you intrigued by what you hear about the Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST) but want to hear directly from the expert before you commit? Join Dr. Janina Fisher—internationally renowned trauma specialist and creator of the TIST model—for an intimate, live Ask Me Anything experience designed especially for curious clinicians. In this unique webinar, you’ll get a firsthand look at how TIST reframes trauma-related issues not as pathology but as fragmented parts driven by survival strategies rooted in their fears of a world they still experience as unsafe.  In TIST, we assume that the parts reflect the impact of a traumatic environment, not just individual events, and this perspective radically transforms your capacity to help even the most shame-based or treatment-resistant clients. Whether you’re new to the model or have already dipped your toes into other parts-informed therapies, this session will give you a sneak peek into the trauma treatment approach Janina has developed over many years and hear what it can do for your clients.

This is your chance to engage with Janina in real time, ask questions about issues that matter most to your practice, and get grounded in why TIST Level 1 is such a powerful first step on the pathway to trauma healing. You’ll discover how TIST helps clients move from internal conflict and self-alienation toward mindful connection, self-compassion, and regulation, all through a neurobiologically-informed empathic approach that therapists consistently describe as transformative for both themselves and their clients.  Level 1 is the first step toward certification as a TIST therapist and listing in our TIST directory.

If you’ve ever felt stuck with clients who don’t respond to your usual methods, or if you want to bring a deeper way of working with trauma into your practice, this webinar will show you what’s possible through Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST).

Clinical Skills Series, Volume 2: "The Attachment Cure: Somatic Interventions for Relational Trauma, Childhood Grief and Intimacy Wounds"

Hosted by: NScience

3 Video Courses + Live Clinical Integration with Janina Fisher, PhD
Live Online Session: Monday, May 18, 2026 | 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM PT / 2:00 PM – 3:30 PM ET / 7:00 PM – 8:30 PM UK
CPD: 21 Hours | Hosted by nscience UK

This powerful training series explores the somatic legacy of early relational wounds—and how to heal them. Combining three of Janina’s most profound video modules with a live 90-minute clinical consultation, this programme offers a rare roadmap for working with clients who long for connection but brace against it, grieve what was never given, or become destabilised by care itself.

Rather than focusing on cognitive insight alone, this series helps clinicians track and transform the protective patterns that form in the absence of secure attachment. You’ll explore grief for the intangible losses of childhood, work with the somatic fear of intimacy, and gain trauma-informed tools to rebuild trust without retraumatisation.

Included Courses (available to stream immediately):
🔷 Healing Broken Bonds: The Consequences of Traumatic Attachment – 7 hours
🔷 Grieving a Lost Childhood: Somatic Interventions for Intangible Losses – 7 hours
🔷 When Intimacy Feels Unsafe: Healing the Trauma Legacy – 6 hours
🔹 Live Integration Session with Janina Fisher – 1.5 hours (90 minutes)

During the live session, Janina will guide you through real case reflections and therapeutic challenges submitted by participants—helping you refine your approach, integrate the material across all three modules, and deepen your clinical attunement with even the most guarded or grief-stricken clients.

Embracing Our Fragmented Selves: A New Approach to Working with Trauma-Related Parts

Hosted by: Cape Cod Institute

This in-person and online training will take place from June 29 to July 2nd.

Understanding the effects of trauma rather than focusing on the events that caused them opens up a new pathway to healing even for survivors who have had many years of therapy. Years of brain scan research has demonstrated that when events are remembered, the prefrontal cortex is inhibited and activity in the brain’s emotional memory areas are increased (Alexandra-Kredlow et al, 2022). The ongoing effects of traumatic experiences can be understood as implicit nonverbal feeling and somatic memories that are experienced as emotional and physical reactions to everyday life.

Why does trauma result in fragmentation? Because traumatic experiences are too overwhelming to be tolerated or processed, especially by a child’s still developing brains. The mental ability of dissociation provides a way to mentally distance from what is happening. The child watches from a depersonalized distance and observes what is happening to that other child. Fragmenting helps us to survive the moment and, in traumatic environments, becomes a chronic response to ongoing danger facing the individual every day.

Rather than pathologizing trauma-related symptoms and the parts that carry them, the Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment approach emphasizes a mindfulness-based acceptance of the implicit memories of parts. Processing events does not treat the implicit memories, but acceptance of the parts’ feelings and reactions can reconsolidate the unfinished implicit past. By helping clients befriend their wounded, vulnerable parts and their darkest, most destructive parts, we can help them find wholeness, self-compassion, and healing.

TIST Level 2 (English)

Hosted by: Academy of Therapy Wisdom

In TIST Level 2, we transition from the theory that was covered in TIST Level 1 into becoming more fluent and practiced at working with trauma, particularly complex trauma.

As we progress, you will develop the ability to be on the same wavelength as your client’s parts, allowing you to more deeply understand and communicate with them. Our work together will become more nuanced and you will have more skill in navigating interventions with even the most difficult or resistant clients.

By the end of Level 2, you will have a greater ability to use the TIST model not just intellectually, but more energetically so that your clients can feel it.
