Want the free infographic? Comment LIMITS and we’ll send you the link to get it.

Not all boundaries look the same and not all boundary struggles are easy to recognize.

Clients may know they need “better boundaries,” but still struggle to identify what kind of boundary is actually being crossed.

This free infographic from boundary expert Nedra Glover Tawwab breaks down 6 types of boundaries clients commonly confuse, giving clinicians a simple tool to help clients put language to what they’re experiencing.

📌 Save this for your next session or share it with a colleague.

Tomorrow morning. 8am Central. Last call.

Fall season is in full swing, and the high-performers are already in your waiting room: the athlete who freezes in the moment that counts, the executive who can’t power down, the client whose “discipline” has started to look like something that needs a closer look.

The 2026 Performance Psychology Conference runs tomorrow and Friday: six sessions across two days, up to 14.5 CE hours, and David Grand demonstrating Brainspotting live on a sports-injury trauma.

Registration includes 90 days of replay access, so a full caseload this week doesn’t cost you a single session.

Comment FROZEN and we’ll send you the registration link.

Fifty years changing how the field treats trauma. Decades of that time quietly carrying his own.

On November 11, Peter A. Levine, PhD sits down with Arielle Schwartz, PhD for a free, unscripted fireside conversation drawn from his memoir, An Autobiography of Trauma.

He talks about the early violence he survived, how joy and imagination kept him intact long before he had language for healing, and the unexpected guides along the way, including the ones who showed up in his dreams. 

If you’ve ever wondered whether your own unfinished healing belongs in the room with your clients, this conversation was built around that exact question.

November 11, 1:00 to 3:00pm Central.

A $129.99 value, free.

Register even if you can’t attend live and you’ll get 3 days of free replay access.

Imagine four days where every hallway conversation picks up right where your hardest session left off. That’s Innovations in Psychotherapy, November 10-13 in Anaheim.

Peter Levine and Arielle Schwartz open with a somatic keynote, Dan Siegel and Kenneth Hardy take the main stage, and the field’s most pressing clinical questions get worked through live, alongside colleagues who understand your caseload.

Chances are you’ll leave with new moves for Monday morning, plus a few new friends to text the next time a client has you stumped.

AI isn’t coming to the therapy room. It’s already there.

Clients are bringing ChatGPT-generated information into sessions. Turning to AI for advice. Using AI companions for connection. And clinicians are navigating questions around privacy, ethics, boundaries, documentation, and what responsible AI use actually looks like.

The question isn’t whether AI will impact clinical practice. It’s how prepared you’ll be to respond when it does.

At the AI in Clinical Practice Conference, 8 experts in counseling, supervision, ethics, and AI research will unpack the tools, risks, and real-world clinical questions practitioners are facing right now, with practical guidance you can apply to your work.

What if earning your CE hours could feel like an actual escape? 🌵✨

Picture yourself learning in Sedona, surrounded by red rock canyons, wide-open skies, and the kind of quiet that makes it easier to slow down, reset, and reconnect.

Because professional development doesn’t have to mean sitting in a conference room all day.

CE hours + breathtaking destinations + time to actually recharge.

Sedona is calling. 👀

Jennifer Gerlach, LCSW recently taught her Neurodiversity in Women training for our community and she brought the thing we can’t get enough of: real clinical depth from someone who knows the territory personally, as a psychotherapist and as an autistic woman.

When a trainer shares that openly, you can feel the room lean in, even a virtual one.

Thousands of clinicians take advantage of our trainings every month, and better-equipped therapists mean better-supported clients.

If you were there, tell us in the comments: what’s one thing from Jennifer’s training you’re carrying into session this week?

Most of the CE we do happens alone at a kitchen table.

This March, you could do it in a room with the people who wrote the books, and a hotel full of therapists who want to talk shop between sessions.

Can’t get to DC? The livestream counts toward CE, too.

Early pricing is live, and it won’t stick around.

The client whose surgery went fine and whose scans came back clear still can’t sleep, and nobody in the hospital thought to ask why.

That’s often where the real work begins, and most of us were never taught what to do with a trauma that has a discharge date.

This free training gives you the assessment tools and a case formulation model built for it, plus a way to talk mind-body with clients who think you’re saying it’s in their head.

Can’t clear the whole day? Replay is included when you register.

77% of psychologists now say their patients use AI for support (APA, 2026).

The Practice Pulse #2 covers what the chatbot can’t see, and three moves for the next time your client turns to AI for therapeutic support. (Plus a free resource to share with your clients on boundaries from Nedra Glover Tawwab’s PESI training.)
