Healing the Roots of Shame: Unlocking Self-Compassion Through the Body

Hosted by: Nachas Consulting

Shame keeps clients trapped in cycles of hopelessness, making progress feel like failure. Attempts at growth are often met with more shame, leaving clients stuck in a frustrating two-steps-forward, one-step-back pattern.

This webinar explores shame as a neurobiological survival response—triggering submission, disconnection, and numbing. Through Sensorimotor Psychotherapy-inspired techniques, participants will learn to help clients shift from self-rejection to curiosity and mindfulness, transforming shame from a roadblock into a powerful tool for healing.

TIST Level 1 (Español)

Hosted by: Newman Institute

Durante los últimos 30 años, la Dra. Janina Fisher ha desarrollado un modelo de tratamiento del trauma que responde a los desafíos que enfrentan los profesionales al trabajar con clientes altamente desregulados, resistentes al tratamiento o que presentan síntomas crónicos como adicciones, autolesiones y una intensa desregulación emocional. El modelo TIST (Tratamiento de la Estabilización Informado por el Trauma) integra principios de la teoría de la disociación estructural, la psicoterapia sensoriomotriz, el modelo de Sistemas Internos Familiares (IFS) y la hipnoterapia clínica para ayudar a los clientes a involucrarse en el proceso terapéutico sin necesidad de revivir o relatar los eventos traumáticos.

Esta formación ofrece una introducción completa al enfoque TIST, con énfasis en el desarrollo de la conciencia interna, la regulación de los impulsos traumáticos y la construcción de una relación compasiva con las partes heridas del yo. Los participantes aprenderán a identificar respuestas de supervivencia impulsadas por el trauma y a aplicar intervenciones que promuevan la estabilización, reduzcan el conflicto interno y fomenten una recuperación sostenible. Este enfoque es especialmente útil para terapeutas que trabajan con personas que han vivido traumas de apego temprano, TEPT complejo o condiciones comórbidas como el uso de sustancias o los trastornos alimentarios.

Te invitamos a marcar estas fechas para el próximo TIST Nivel 01:

Martes 6 de agosto de 2025, de 9:00 a 11:00 a.m. (hora del Pacífico)

Trauma and Addictive Disorders

Hosted by: Delphi Center

Unhealed trauma often lives beneath the surface of addiction and disordered eating—shaping behavior, hijacking the nervous system, and interfering with long-term recovery. For many clients, trauma isn’t just part of the story—it is the story. Yet too often, professionals are forced to choose between addressing substance use or addressing trauma, when in reality, both are deeply intertwined.

This training explores how childhood abuse and neglect reshape the brain and nervous system, leaving clients vulnerable to emotional overwhelm, compulsive behaviors, and limited access to rational thinking or verbal communication. You’ll discover how to identify signs of autonomic dysregulation and apply practical, brain-based strategies that support both trauma healing and recovery from addiction and eating disorders.

This 3- hr virtual workshop, hosted by the Delphi Center, takes place at August 16th at 9am Australian Time Zone / August 15 at 3pm Pacific Time Zone.

TIST Level 1 (Deutsch)

Hosted by: Fortschritte Hamburg

TIST Level 1 beginnt am 25. September 2025 und bietet sechs Live-Sitzungen mit Dr. Janina Fisher, die jeweils von 18:00 bis 21:00 Uhr MEZ stattfinden. Diese Fortbildung vermittelt die Grundlagen der Trauma-Informierten Stabilisierungsbehandlung (TIST), einem Modell, das auf achtsamkeitsbasierten Interventionen sowie Techniken aus der sensomotorischen Psychotherapie, Ego-State-Therapie und Internal Family Systems basiert. Kindheitstraumata, Vernachlässigung und verletzte Bindungserfahrungen hinterlassen bei den Betroffenen oft ein fragmentiertes Selbstverständnis und ein geschädigtes Nervensystem, das die Emotionsregulation beeinträchtigt. Das Training hilft Therapeut:innen, die neurobiologischen und psychologischen Auswirkungen von Traumata zu verstehen, Symptome von Fragmentierung zu erkennen und Strategien zu erlernen, um Mitgefühl, innere Kommunikation und Stabilisierung zu fördern. Teilnehmer:innen lernen, wie sie Achtsamkeit, Selbstbindungstechniken und interne Zusammenarbeit gezielt in ihre Praxis integrieren können. Dieses Training bietet eine solide Grundlage, um traumabedingte Symptome zu adressieren und effektive Behandlungsansätze für komplexe Fälle zu entwickeln.

September 2025 von 18:00 bis 21:00 (Mitteleuropäische Zeit)

International TIST Level 2 Training in 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.

In TIST Level 2 you will gain proficiency in:

  • The Building Blocks of a Skilled TIST Therapist
  • The Art of Working with Protector Parts
  • The Do’s and Don’ts of TIST
  • Challenges of Implementing the TIST Model with DID Clients
  • Extreme Cases: Ritual Abuse, Trafficking, Sadistic and Malevolent Abuse
  • Resolution of Traumatic Memory

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.

Long Ago and Far Away: New Approaches to Treating Traumatic Memory

Hosted by: Delphi Center

Using mindfulness-based interventions adapted from EMDR and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, this webinar will demonstrate simple, practical interventions for addressing the living legacy of effects rather than the events.  Underlying this way of working is an assumption that it is less important to know what happened than to feel that ‘it’ is over and we are finally safe.

Newer cutting-edge approaches to memory have different goals than earlier techniques.  Their goal is to reconstruct the clients’ relationship to the events so that they finally feel long ago and far away.  By addressing the effects of those events, we can help clients transform feelings of inadequacy and shame into a sense of “I survived, and I’m safe now.”

TIST Level 1 (Italiano)

Hosted by: Formazione Continua in Psicologia

Negli ultimi 30 anni, i progressi terapeutici hanno aiutato molti clienti, ma rimane un gruppo significativo di sopravvissuti al trauma alla disperata ricerca di sollievo, per i quali gli approcci tradizionali non hanno funzionato. Spesso etichettati come “non trattabili,” questi individui ricevono diagnosi di disturbi della personalità, suicidi, autolesionismo, abuso di sostanze, disturbi alimentari o dissociazione. Questa stigmatizzazione li fa sentire emarginati e incompresi, mentre molti terapeuti si sentono sopraffatti e privi degli strumenti necessari per trattarli efficacemente.

Il modello TIST (Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment), sviluppato dalla Dr.ssa Janina Fisher, offre soluzioni a queste sfide complesse, ponendo la stabilizzazione al centro del trattamento. Fondato su principi neuroscientifici, il TIST combina interventi basati sulla mindfulness con tecniche tratte dalla psicoterapia sensomotoria, dalla terapia degli stati dell’io e dall’IFS (Internal Family Systems), per affrontare le difficoltà cliniche di pazienti con diagnosi complesse come PTSD complesso, disturbo borderline di personalità, disturbo bipolare, disturbi dissociativi, alimentari e dipendenze.

Healing the Fragmented Selves of Trauma Survivors: Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST)

Hosted by: Centre for Interpersonal Relationships

Self-rejection is a survival strategy that maintains children’s attachment to abusive attachment figures by disowning themselves as “bad” or “unlovable.” This deeply painful failure of self-acceptance is adaptive in an unsafe world but results in lifelong shame and self-loathing, difficulty self-soothing, identity confusion, and complications in relationships with others.

As clients learn to relate to their overwhelming emotions and impulsive behavior as signs of these rejected traumatized parts, they develop an increased ability to observe rather than react to distressing affects and/or act out associated impulses. Using strategies inspired by Polyvagal Theory and Internal Family Systems, therapists can help clients access the therapeutic power of mindful relationships to their most deeply disowned selves.
