When Trauma Hijacks the Brain

$69.99 Standard

When trauma hits, the brain loses balance – clients swing between overwhelm and shutdown, stuck in loops of fear, disconnection, and shame.

In this powerful keynote, world-renowned psychiatrist, Dr. Dan Siegel shows you how to help clients get unstuck by rebuilding the brain’s natural wiring for calm and connection.

You’ll discover how to:

  • Spot the brain-based signs of chaos and rigidity that keep clients trapped in trauma
  • Use simple mindfulness and relationship-based tools to cam stress and rewire safety
  • Apply Dr. Siegel’s proven Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB) framework to help clients feel whole, present, and resilient again

Walk away with practical strategies you can use in your very next session – so your clients can move from fragmentation to healing, one connection at a time.
