There are at least a dozen recognizable trauma-specific models in circulation. Several are well evidenced. Several are not. All of them are marketed with similar institutional weight, and clinicians develop loyalties that quietly shape treatment decisions. The discipline Foundations teaches is the one that sorts established evidence from emerging evidence from theoretical scaffolding from clinical wisdom, and refuses to collapse them.
The 12-week course
Every clinician trained in a model eventually meets the client for whom it stops working. The course is built around that moment: what tells you the approach has failed, what you do first, how you choose the next move and from which model, and how you know the client is ready to return to the original work. It moves through trauma treatment by model family, one family each week, and integration accumulates across the twelve weeks. One live virtual meeting a week, 60 minutes, capped at ten so the time goes to cases and clinical skill rather than lecture.
Where it started
The September 2026 pilot ran as a two-day intensive. It began with the foundation: the history and ethics of the diagnosis, diagnostic frameworks and differential reasoning across DSM-5-TR and ICD-11, neurobiology taught with explicit attention to what the evidence does and does not license you to say, and assessment and case conceptualization. What that cohort told us shaped the course.
Who this is for
Licensed psychologists, licensed professional counselors, clinical social workers, and associates under supervision.
