ODL 447: Self-Meaning Based Therapy®: Understanding Core Self-Meaning, Attachment, Trauma, and Experiential Change
$100.00
5 Credit Hours: This 5-hour training introduces Self-Meaning Based Therapy® (SMBT) as a clinical framework for understanding how early attachment experiences, trauma, relational patterns, and unconscious meaning-making contribute to the development of core negative self-meaning. Participants will explore how emotionally salient experiences may become internalized as identity-based conclusions, shaping perception, emotional regulation, interpersonal functioning, compensatory strategies, and symptom presentation across the lifespan.Emphasis will be placed on ethical, trauma-informed, and clinically responsible application, including recognition of client readiness, scope of competence, and the need for further training before independent use of specialized SMBT interventions.
