Unlearning Pain

w/ Dr. Howard Schubiner

Overview

Clients and patients often present with chronic symptoms for which there is no clear medical explanation. These syndromes include chronic pain, anxiety, depression, fatigue and insomnia. High rates of lifetime trauma and unresolved emotional experiences often underlie these conditions. New research and clinical practices have been shown to be effective for these individuals. This training offers the clinician the opportunity to gain knowledge and learn skills that will be immediately applicable to their practices.
