The Centre for Somatic ResilienceTM
About the Centre for
Somatic Resilience Training
The Centre for Somatic Resilience Training (CSRT) was set up in response to the growing interest in somatic therapeutic practices and the demand for affordable training that equips therapists to address trauma by integrating existing practices with effective somatic interventions.
CSRT facilitates accredited courses as well as workshops designed to help mitigate the impact of secondary trauma in high-pressure frontline service professions such as social work, blue light services, and non-profits working with traumatised populations. Training offers deep foundational knowledge of nervous system threat responses and proven effective somatic principles that students can integrate seamlessly into their existing work.
