      <title>From Stabilization to Integration: Advanced Trauma-Informed Interventions (Friday, July 31, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#326094"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;From Stabilization to Integration: Advanced Trauma-Informed Interventions&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#326094" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Presented by Jessica LeTourneau, LCPC&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This 2-hour follow-up clinical webinar expands on foundational Polyvagal Theory concepts to help participants translate nervous system awareness into trauma-focused stabilization strategies. Building from prior learning on autonomic hierarchy, neuroception, and co-regulation, participants will review how trauma-related symptoms reflect adaptive survival responses and how these patterns shape emotion regulation, relationships, sleep, and coping behaviors.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Using case-based application and practical clinical tools, participants will strengthen their ability to assess nervous system states, identify early signs of dysregulation, and intervene using body-based and regulation-focused strategies. Participants will learn to integrate CARESS-based coping replacement, Nightmare/Flashback halting protocols, and grounding techniques to reduce shame, improve present moment orienting, and support post-traumatic growth.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Jessica LeTourneau, LCPC&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;has been working in the mental health field for over 20 years. She has been established in private practice since 2013 and is the CEO of New Perspectives. Prior to private practice, she worked with children, adolescents, and adults in various settings such as inpatient psychiatric hospitalization, residential treatment, Veterans Affairs intensive outpatient programs, in-home behavioral intervention, and outpatient clinics. She is most passionate about treating military veterans, law enforcement, and first responders.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition to her tenure in the mental health field, she has an extensive background in health and fitness and worked as a CrossFit Coach, personal trainer, and group fitness instructor for 15 years.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Most recently, she has been presenting on topics related to trauma, neuroscience, and self-care.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;

      <title>The Therapist’s Therapist: Holding Space for Your Professional Colleagues (Friday, August 14, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#326094"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Therapist’s Therapist: Holding Space for Your Professional Colleagues&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" color="#326094" style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Presented by&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" style="font-size: 14px;" color="#326094"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Dr. Christine N. Williams, PhD, LCPC, DBT-C, CCTP II, EMDR, CMNCS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This 2-hour webinar is a restorative, truth telling experience designed for the clinicians who spend their lives holding everyone else. This webinar creates a rare space where therapists can exhale, reconnect with their clinical identity, and be witnessed as a human being without judgment or being performative.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Through psychoeducation, validation, and honest conversation about the realities of our field, participants learn how to hold space for other therapists, adapt to their reality, strengthen their professional community, and reclaim the humanity behind the role. It’s an invitation to step out of survival mode, remember why you started this work, and leave with renewed clarity, confidence, and connection.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dr. Christine Williams&lt;/strong&gt; is the Lead Clinician and Owner of Live.Balanced.Life.LLC; a trauma-focused out-patient mental health clinic located in Clarksville, Maryland. With more than 15 years of experience, she specializes in complex trauma, and dissociative identity disorder (DID). She is certified in EMDR, DBT and Level II Complex Trauma approaches. This allows her to offer an integrative approach by combining her specializations with Somatic, Polyvagal, EFT/Tapping, and Internal Family Systems approaches to create individualized treatment plans for each client. She also holds the CMNCS credential, which recognizes advanced training in how nutrition influences mental health; she uses this knowledge to offer trauma-informed psychoeducation, not medical nutrition, to support clients’ overall wellbeing.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Dr. Williams holds clinical licenses in Maryland, Washington, DC, and Virginia, and is a Board-approved Clinical Supervisor in Maryland.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;She completed her PhD in International Psychology with a specialization in Trauma and is a member of APA Division 52. Known for her curiosity and love of research, Dr. Williams often says she “nerds out” on integrating cutting-edge, evidence-based techniques to support clients with PTSD and complex trauma. She views therapy as her calling and brings both heart and rigor to the work.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: transparent;"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
