Overcoming Self-Doubt and Shame: An Attachment and Trauma-Sensitive Approach

Summary

Date / Time

Tuesday, May 12 2026
Prerequisite: None

This training is open to both licensed professionals and non-therapists. While the material is designed for those supporting others in a clinical or healing capacity, you don’t need to be a therapist to attend.

Who Is This For?

  • Couples and family therapists who need structured ways to de-escalate reactivity, map attachment dynamics in real time, and coach repair.
  • Individual trauma clinicians (EMDR, IFS, SE, CBT, integrative) who want attachment-informed interventions that plug into their current model.
  • Early-career practitioners and interns looking for step-by-step methods, demo clips, and language that builds clinical confidence.
  • Seasoned clinicians seeking fresh tools for “stuck” cases where insight hasn’t shifted survival patterns.
  • Coaches and allied professionals who support relationships and want humane, skills-based practices to foster safety, agency, and connection.
  • Supervisors, group leaders, and educators who want repeatable frameworks (Life Script, First Year Attachment Cycle, Inner Child work, Psychodramatic Reenactment, ACT) to teach and model.
  • Anyone working with complex attachment adaptations, from anxious, avoidant, and disorganized patterns to developmental trauma, who needs a practical roadmap from talk to change.

Learning Objectives

  • Describe the four attachment styles and how they shape adult relational behavior.
  • Differentiate secure vs. disrupted internal working models and their clinical markers.
  • Identify four common survival coping reactions to trauma and their impact on therapy.
  • Apply Life Script as an assessment tool to surface core beliefs and relational patterns.
  • Explain the stages of the First Year Attachment Cycle and how early disruptions present in treatment.
  • Facilitate an introductory Inner Child exercise using preparation, relaxation, and contracting for safety.
  • Structure a Psychodramatic Reenactment (Revisit, Revise, Revitalize) to support corrective experiences.
  • Coach partners in Attachment Communication Training (ACT) to reduce escalation and repair ruptures.
  • Integrate experiential methods with a client’s existing modality (e.g., CBT, IFS, EMDR, or SE) to enhance outcomes.
  • Formulate a step-by-step treatment plan that moves clients from victim identity toward secure functioning.

What is Therapy Mastermind Circle?

An annual online program where we meet monthly to explore pressing topics, share expert learning, and gain practical skills to help you and your clients thrive.

Explore a variety of deep and complex topics—highly relevant to your practice, and not covered often in traditional training programs.

Learn directly from Dr. Diane Poole Heller and other renowned experts ready to share years of professional, clinical experience.

Integrate new skills and highly effective corrective exercises and interventions with existing modalities to help clients grow and thrive despite their past trauma.

Get access to a comprehensive library of tools and training resources like slides, worksheets, and videos––plus, client case studies, clinical demos, interventions, and experiential exercises.

Join a supportive, friendly and engaged community of like-minded professionals where you can network, practice new skills, and support each other’s healing journeys.

Stay current with the latest training tools and approaches—plus, you can earn up to 12 CE credits every six months as you complete each training topic module.

Enrollment is only open twice a year––and topics rotate every 6 months to provide fresh perspectives, tools, techniques, and learning!

**STUDENTS MUST ATTEND ALL LIVE COURSE HOURS TO RECEIVE CE CREDIT. Trauma Solutions is unable to award partial Continuing Education credits. Students will ONLY receive CEs for live training modules that they have attended all hours live online.

Frequently Asked Questions

Therapy Mastermind Circle is an annual online training and community for trauma and attachment professionals. Each topic runs for six months, with monthly live sessions hosted on Zoom where you’ll learn from Dr. Diane Poole Heller and invited experts who bring years of clinical experience to their teaching.

Every session includes live instruction, experiential exercises, and Q&A, with opportunities for small-group breakout practice alongside your peers. You’ll also have access to a private learning portal in Kajabi, where you can submit questions, review recorded sessions at your own pace, and download materials like slides, worksheets, and transcripts.

Membership provides ongoing access to an engaged community of like-minded clinicians, plus a growing library of demos, interventions, and case studies designed to deepen your skill set. Enrollment opens twice a year, and topics rotate every six months—each offering new perspectives, methods, and tools to help you and your clients thrive.

No you do not. While most members are mental-health professionals (therapists, counselors, social workers, psychologists, MFTs), related professionals and advanced coaches who work with attachment and trauma are welcome. This program is professional education—not therapy for the general public.

Since this particular cohort includes live demos, small group breakout sessions and experiential teaching, we do encourage any non-therapists who choose to join us to have therapeutic support in place, as the material covered during our time together is not meant as a substitute for therapy. If you are currently working with a mental health professional, we encourage you to invite them to join this program as well.

Each monthly live session will be streamed live via Zoom online (see curriculum for scheduled dates). Additionally, you’ll be able to submit questions each week through the private course portal and during the live monthly session, which always includes time for Q&A.

Every call will be recorded and stored inside the private course portal, so you may review it at your own pace. However, we highly recommend you attend live so you don’t miss live teaching and the opportunity to participate in breakout sessions with your peers.

We meet once a month on Tuesdays from 11:00 am–1:00 pm MT.
For this topic series, the live dates are:

Session 1: Tuesday, Nov 4, 2025 · Assessing Attachment and Trauma
11:00 am–1:00 pm MT

Session 2: Tuesday, Dec 2, 2025 · First Year of Life Attachment Cycle
11:00 am–1:00 pm MT

11:00 am–1:00 pm MT

Session 6: Tuesday, Apr 14, 2026 · Review, Process, Future Goals & Applications
11:00 am–1:00 pm MT

Each class includes teaching, a demo (live or recorded), experiential practice, Q&A, and optional breakout sessions. 

We’d love for you to join each session live, but if you’re unable to, that’s okay. All sessions and training calls, including Q&A, are recorded and stored in your personal learning portal (Kajabi), so you can access the full teaching and coaching experience anytime.

Program materials—including audio recordings, video replays, and transcripts from each session—are yours to download and keep within your portal. For privacy reasons, demo videos are view-only and may not be downloaded.

You can also submit questions directly through Kajabi outside of live sessions. It’s a supportive space to ask questions, share insights, and connect with Dr. Terry, Dr. Heller, and your colleagues throughout the program.

Yes. You’ll have access to our members-only discussion space inside Kajabi (your learning portal) and occasional pop-up Zoom office hours/Q&A threads. It’s a supportive, professional environment—great for clarifying how to apply an intervention in your setting.

Only the LIVE, ONLINE sessions for this course have been approved for a total of 8 CE credit hours. If you are a licensed clinical professional counselor or a licensed social worker—you may purchase these CE credits for an additional fee of $89 via our website.

CE credits must be purchased by the beginning of the last live session—Tuesday, April 14, 2026. Attendance will be taken to verify eligibility.

Upon completion of the program, you will be sent an activity evaluation link, which must be completed within 60 days after the last program session (by Saturday, June 13, 2026). Upon completion of the activity evaluation, participants can print their certificate or statement of credit immediately.

Also, a Certificate of Completion is available to all students at the end of the course upon request at no additional charge.

Note: It is the participants responsibility to check their individual state boards to verify CE requirements for their state. For detailed information regarding CEs, please contact our Customer Support Team.

Yes. We can invoice for group enrollments and help with CE documentation. Please contact our Customer Support Team for simple group options.

Please contact our Customer Support Team for more information.

If you have additional questions or need technical support, please contact our Customer Support Team for more information.

We’re confident this program will be a valuable investment in your education, personal growth and clinical practice. You have 30 days from the start of the first class to contact our Customer Support Team for a full refund if you feel the program does not meet your needs—no questions asked.
