The Trauma Training You Didn’t Know You Needed (But Won’t Forget)

Live in Sydney | 8–9 November 2025 | CPD-Approved In-Person Workshop

Imagine feeling calm, confident, and equipped the next time a client’s trauma story overwhelms the room.
Imagine knowing how to hold space, without burning out.
Imagine doing it live, in the room, with a therapist who has walked the walk for over 30 years.

This November, Maureen McEvoy, one of Canada’s most beloved Imago Relationships trauma educators, is coming to Sydney for a powerful two-day training:

🧠 Healing Trauma, Restoring Connection
📍 Crows Nest Community Centre, Sydney
🗓️ 8–9 November 2025

Hosted by the Australian Resource Therapy Institute, this rare in-person event is your opportunity to go beyond theory, and experience what it truly means to integrate trauma-informed care into your practice.


This Workshop Is For You If…

  • You want to feel more confident working with disorganised attachment
  • You’re curious about how to integrate parts work, ego state therapy, art therapy, and somatic tools
  • You don’t specialise in couples work, but you know relationships are always in the room
  • You’ve felt overwhelmed by trauma disclosures, and want real tools to respond
  • You’re tired of online training and ready for face-to-face learning that sticks

This isn’t just for couples therapists. It’s for anyone who works with humans. Therapists, psychologists, doctors, psychiatrists, counsellors, social workers, coaches – all are welcome.


What You’ll Learn (And Use Straight Away)

✅ Practical interventions for relational trauma and emotional regulation
✅ Creative techniques using art therapy, body awareness, and parts dialogue
✅ How to build co-regulation and relational safety
✅ A clear, experiential understanding of how your own attachment style shapes your work
✅ A flexible framework you can integrate with Imago, EFT, PACT, and other modalities

This is not a sit-and-watch weekend. This is an engaged, experiential deep dive with one of the best in the field.

“I wish I’d done this years ago.”
– Every therapist who’s trained with Maureen
