Join Anne Hallward, MD, in-person or live-online for her course, The Unspoken Challenges of Caregiving for Dementia.

Caring for someone with dementia often means loving a person who is physically present and yet no longer the same. Through stories, reflection, and small-group dialogue, participants will name the challenges that are hard to talk about and explore new ways of relating to people with dementia that support connection, communication, and healing.

This course also addresses the practical realities of caregiving, including driving decisions, housing transitions, finances, advance directives, sleep, and self-care.

Join Janina Fisher, PhD, for Embracing Our Fragmented Selves: A New Approach to Working with Trauma-Related Parts at the Cape Cod Institute.

In this course, clinicians learn a trauma-informed stabilization approach that emphasizes mindful acceptance rather than re-exposure. By helping clients befriend the wounded, protective, and even destructive parts that carry implicit memory, therapists support reconsolidation, self-compassion, and a return to wholeness.

This approach offers new pathways to healing, even for clients with long therapy histories.
