CEU PROGRAMS
Learn, Grow, & Expand Your Clinical Skills
Our CEU programs are designed for LCATs who want to deepen their expertise.
AT START, WE MEET YOU WHERE YOU ARE
We offer high-quality CEU programs that go beyond checkbox learning.
Continuing Education Units (CEUs) are professional development courses that help clinicians maintain their credentials and expand their clinical skills.
Our trainings are practical, engaging, and designed to genuinely enhance the way you work with clients.
Our CEU programs cover a range of topics, including creative arts therapy modalities (art, music, drama, dance/movement, and writing therapy), trauma-informed care, EMDR, somatic approaches, working with specific populations, ethical considerations, and more. Whether you're looking to fulfill licensing requirements or explore new therapeutic tools, our trainings offer valuable, applicable knowledge.
All of our programs are taught by experienced, licensed clinicians who bring real-world expertise and a passion for teaching. We prioritize experiential learning, case examples, and opportunities for practice so you leave with skills you can immediately integrate into your work.
Our CEU programs are approved by relevant licensing boards and professional organizations. We offer both virtual and in-person trainings to accommodate your schedule and learning preferences.
OUR APPROACH TO CEU PROGRAMS
We believe continuing education should be more than a requirement.
It should be inspiring, challenging, and directly applicable to your clinical work. Our programs are designed to reignite your passion for the field while giving you practical tools you can use with clients. Our approach is:
Experiential
We don't just lecture. We engage you in exercises, role-plays, and creative activities so you understand the work from the inside out.
Trauma-Informed & Ethical
We prioritize safety, cultural humility, and ethical practice in all of our trainings.
Practical & Applicable
Everything we teach is grounded in real clinical experience. You'll leave with strategies, techniques, and insights you can use immediately.
Collaborative
We encourage questions, discussion, and shared learning. Your clinical experience enriches the training for everyone.
Accessible
We offer virtual options for busy professionals and ensure our trainings are welcoming to clinicians at all stages of their careers.
