Gaining Ground is a training experience designed for Pre-Licensure Clinicians and Master’s Students in practicum that is topic driven and created to help clinicians move forward in their journey as a therapist. All of the courses for Gaining Ground are focused on clinical work and how to apply these concepts right away with your clients. The three fundamental courses Attachment, Trauma and Self-Care are designed to be taken consecutively and when completed all together, you will have a cohesive Trauma Responsive Attachment Model to use in your practice.
All courses of the Gaining Ground training are in-person and designed to be a small group format limited to 10 people per round to help create connection and discussion. They are held at Cedar Valley located at 3460 Washington Drive Suite 110 Eagan, MN 55122. You will receive more detailed information one week prior to the training.

a little about me
I have worked with families, adults and children for 20 years. Before private practice I worked in family homes, schools and correctional facilities. In all of my work I have believed that relationships are integral parts of our lives and when we feel truly connected, really seen and understood, amazing things can happen. Over the years I have done many trainings for professionals, communities and schools, but started thinking “why isn’t there affordable trainings for new clinicians?” Gaining Ground was born! My goal became to support new clinicians by creating a training series that takes the knowledge you already have and add to it by focusing on how to apply it clinically. Also, that it would only be for new clinicians so that you can feel truly seen and understood. Come join the conversation and gain ground in your journey with me!
