ACT as a psychotherapy for Complex Trauma: With Louise Hayes & Robyn Walser
I am delighted to share two workshops with you on therapy for complex trauma across the lifespan.
Attend live or watch the recording.
I will be leading the first workshop, and the fabulous Dr Robyn Walser will be leading the second.
Robyn is one of the world's leaders in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for trauma with decades of experience working with clients, training, writing books on trauma, and she even helped develop ACT with the founders (Steve, Kirk and Kirk).
Robyn’s work is not technique; it's therapy with heart and process.
Few know how to deliver ACT therapy as well as Robyn.

Workshop 1: Louise Hayes
In my workshop, you'll learn how to deliver ACT that is grounded in developmental awareness and guided by adaptation and growth. Often therapy can overlook how every aspect of a child is changed by trauma, and how this impacts lifelong cognitions, emotions, actions, self-concepts and of course relationships with others and the world.
You’ll learn:
âś” Understand complex trauma from an adaptive evolutionary perspective
âś” Learn how childhood and learning history influences how we see the self, others and the world
âś” See how DNA-V/ACT can be used to create change and new ways to respond to self, others, and the world
âś” Consider how to integrate ACT with EMDR and parts work, so that you can work with the whole person in context.
Workshop 2: Robyn Walser
Shift from applying techniques to being in process. This workshop focuses on therapeutic presence, relational depth, and working moment-to-moment with psychological flexibility.
You’ll learn:
âś” ACT as a psychotherapy, not a toolkit, with exposure embedded as values-based learning and trauma processing
✔ Integration of trauma treatment modalities (EMDR, WET) with ACT’s theoretical foundation
âś” Using the therapeutic relationship as an active context for healing and change
âś” Clinical decision-making guided by process, function, and therapist presence
âś” Attend live or watch the post-view recording
âś” Choose either one workshop, or bundle them and get a discount
âś” Four hours of training delivered by Clinical Psychologists
âś” CEUs available for USA
With warmth and kindness,
Louise
