Jamie Sedgwick, LCPC, NCC
Training Director & Consultant
This self-paced, on-demand training presents the same material as our live one-day training, with lecture led by Jamie Sedgwick, an EMDRIA Approved Consultant. Watch on your schedule and move at your own pace.
About This Training
The training takes a closer look at early attachment, how to recognize attachment trauma, and the correlation between attachment trauma and a Borderline Personality Disorder presentation in adulthood, with relational interventions and techniques for healing attachment wounding within the therapeutic space.
Borderline Personality Disorder is often viewed as scary, even among mental health professionals. By understanding the diagnosis through a trauma lens, we can start to reduce the fear and gain a better understanding of how to effectively help clients heal.
Why Jamie Teaches This
In Jamie’s words: “I specialize in treating Borderline Personality Disorder. I truly believe we don’t choose our areas of specialty; they choose us. That was the case for me. I feel truly honored to have the privilege to be a part of the healing process for individuals who experienced attachment trauma and present with symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder. I want other clinicians to be able to see this diagnosis through a trauma lens so we, as mental health professionals, can start to destigmatize the diagnosis and reduce retraumatization within treatment settings.”
