Science of Connection: A Polyvagal Informed Approach to Therapy

About this Training

Polyvagal-informed therapy, rooted in Dr. Stephen Porges' Polyvagal Theory, offers a framework for understanding how the autonomic nervous system influences emotional regulation, social connection, and responses to safety and threat. This approach emphasizes the importance of feeling safe and connected for overall well-being and explores how the nervous system transitions between states of mobilization, disconnection, and social engagement. 

Join Paul North (Psychologist) in a highly practical application of Polyvagal Theory in building connection in the context of therapeutic treatment. Explore specific case theory applications of how understanding the science of Polyvagal Theory will improve your skills as a practitioner.
