2010 Fall NMT Case-Based Training Series  - ENROLL NOW
Start Date: Friday, October 1, 2010, *Certificates of completion are available.

The NMT Case-Based Training Series is an online clinical case conference series led by Dr. Bruce Perry. The Series consists of ten 90-minute case staffings in which Dr. Perry uses the Neurosequential Model (NMT) to conceptualize each case and further illustrate the model. He presents a brain map for each case and, along with CTA Fellows, teaches on a variety of case-related topics.

During the 2010 Fall Series, we will dedicate one session each to the following five topics:

-- Use of NMT Metrics
-- Play Therapy and the NMT with discussant Richard Gaskill, Ed.D.
-- Psychopharmacology: Dissociation
-- Trauma in Infants with discussant Kristie Brandt, M.S., Ph.D.
-- Use of the NMT in Adult Populations

Cases are brought forward by the participants in the series. Participants are provided with topic overviews, annotated bibliographies and handouts. Sessions are recorded and available for convenient viewing. This teaching model has received glowing reviews by participants -- stating it has been extremely useful for helping clinicians and front-line staff better understand the neurodevelopmental principles involved in many of the primary symptoms, as well as strengths, they see in the children they serve.

Organizational Rate is $1825 for all 15 hours of training with up to 25 participants in a single room. Individual Rate is $650 for all 15 hours of training.

ON SALE APRIL 6, 2010 - BORN FOR LOVE: Why Empathy Is Essential and Endangered  ORDER NOW

Dr. Bruce D. Perry and journalist Maia Szalavitz argue that empathy, the ability to recognize and share the feelings of others, is a crucial human quality that underlies much more than love, friendship and parenting. Through compelling personal stories and wide-ranging research, they explore how empathy affects everything from emotional depression to the Great Recession, from physical health to mental health, from our ability to love to criminal behavior and even the rise and fall of societies.
