Trauma Certification Through Connected Recovery™ Training
For professionals who are not offering therapy, counseling, or coaching, such as Attorneys, Medical Professionals, etc., who are interested in providing Trauma-Informed Care to their clients and patients, Connected Recovery™ Training offers a three-hour class that walks you through understanding what trauma is and the potential impact it has on individuals, including information about ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences). This training can be taught to individuals or groups. Those who attend the class become Certified Trauma Trained Professionals, a certification that is valid for three years. Contact us for more information or to schedule a training for yourself or your office. The three-hour training includes everything you need for CTTP certification and is $1000.
Levels of Certification in Connected Recovery™
