Become a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and professional Certified in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (C-DBT).
Why dual certification?
Because trauma is complex—and healing takes more than one approach. DBT gives you the structure and skills to manage emotional dysregulation and high-risk behaviors. Trauma therapy gives you the depth to address what's underneath. When you master both, you become the kind of therapist who can stabilize crises and facilitate deep, lasting change.
