Trauma Informing Your Clinical Practice | 3 CE Credits

Mar. 22, 2025

10:00 AM - 1:15 PM (EST)

Virtual Event
3 CE Credits
Whether you’re in private practice or part of a larger healthcare organization, this virtual event will empower you with a deep understanding of the rationale behind trauma-informed care, grounded in a neurobiological perspective. Don’t miss this opportunity to enhance your skills and improve patient outcomes!
Take Trauma-Informed care beyond a buzzword in this in-depth presentation on how to trauma-inform your clinical practice. Evidence in the literature is now showing what we long expected in the field of traumatology: that through trauma awareness and trauma-informed care, we can prevent traumatization, improve health outcomes, and decrease stigma and other harm while decreasing our own burnout and compassion fatigue. Whether you are a clinician in a private practice setting or a large health organization, you will learn the rationale for this approach from a neurobiological framework and the essential steps to assess and improve your practice so that you can feel confident in offering care in the face of trauma and adversity.

Livia Adia Budrys, LCSW, C-IAYT, SEP

Livia is a psychotherapist, social worker, yoga therapist, Somatic Experiencing practitioner, and spiritual activist. She is the founder of the Yoga-Informed Model and is an advocate of the mind + body paradigm shift. She implemented one of the first yoga therapy programs for mental health treatment in a nationally renowned residential treatment center. There, she developed a clinical residency program to train the next generation of psychotherapists to weave yoga into their treatment of complex mental health and trauma. She is passionate about best practices and the integration of neurobiology, somatics, yoga, and psychotherapy for the healing of addiction, eating and mood disorders, and the often underlying acute and chronic traumatization. Livia’s psychotherapeutic experience includes training in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Change Therapy (ACT), DBT- Prolonged Exposure (DBT-PE), Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP), anti-oppressive psychodynamic psychotherapy.

Livia’s engagement with yoga and meditation began with a two-year residency at the Himalayan International Institute of Yoga Science and Philosophy, where, in 1999, she was initiated into the tradition of the Himalayan Masters. She has completed over a decade of advanced and therapeutic yoga certifications and became a Reiki Master in 1998. She has been deeply influenced by the mindfulness training she received from Vietnamese Zen Monk Thich Nhat Hanh.

Today, she works to educate healthcare organizations, conducts research, and presents nationally the benefits of yoga for mental health and trauma awareness to reduce systemic burnout. She partners to implement therapeutic programs, training, and protocols that utilize the Yoga-Informed model and community-based, accessible Somatic Experiencing. She has enjoyed several clinical leadership roles in inpatient settings, most recently as Director of Trauma-Informed Care at a national treatment center – always with her hope to serve clients while supporting the system’s greater capacity for sustainable well-being.
