This just in, my May DBR Level One Training is now open for registration!

Additionally, I’ve launched a two-hour consultation series called “DBR Briefing L1,” specifically designed for newly trained DBR L1 clinicians. This series begins in January and provides four hours of support for those who have completed their DBR L1 training and are preparing to advance to Level Two. It's also a great group for folks who want to revisit some of what they learned in DBR L1.

If you’re a therapist who has ever been interested in learning about Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), checking out my conversation with Dr. Frank Corrigan (link in bio) is a great place to start. We dive deeper into Deep Brain Reorienting psychotherapy by covering everything from the importance of clinicians being well trained in trauma and dissociation, to animal assisted interweaves within the context of DBR therapy. If this conversation sparks your interest, be on a look out for more DBR informative posts and upcoming Approved DBR Level One Trainings in 2026!

Pssst...Soon, my DBR Level One Training schedule details will be announced. So excited! I am aiming for February. Just finalizing some important details, prior to release.

In the meantime, therapists you know who may be interested, can email me at Sarah@DragonflyInternationalTherapy.Com to get on my list of first to know!

The being with is not an action, it just is. Again, that’s the work. Ironically, it’s also not the work of doing, either for the client, or the therapist, both of whom may have an inclination to, again, come from that place of Vritti. Our practice as DBR therapists is the noticing of the fluctuations, and getting under them.

January 23rd and 20th, 2026

This event runs a couple of times a year. 10 spaces only. This follow-up to HWS Part 1 helps develop a greater understanding of working from a parts perspective in process, as well as through the lens of structural dissociation theory and EMDR therapy. The experiential course is also especially beneficial for learning how to conceptualize when working with complex trauma and dissociation through a theory of dissociation.
The two-day practicum, a live, online practicum-based event, provides therapists with the opportunity to now increase their confidence and skills in working with Structural Dissociation Theory and apply what has been taught in HWS Part 1, including the application of Fraser’s Dissociative Table /Meeting Place and working with parts in a more "organic" way.

Just Back From Scotland & DBR Therapist Consultations I'm also just back from Scotland, finally over jet lag, having spent a week with Frank Corrigan and colleagues, with even more in depth learning to pull from. The layers keep deepening, and deepening. The breadth of the experience, really goes...

I am still astounded by the incredible EMDR International Association conference. With 1700 attendees, all passionate about learning, growth, community, and healing, it was an awe-inspiring experience. I am always grateful to attend these events, and after 23+ years as an EMDR Therapist (how did that happen, by the way?), I am struck by the diverse range of experiences and connections that can be gained from attending these conferences. They are truly inspiring.

In other news, I was delighted to officially give EMDRIA-approved EMDR Consultant Dr. Elizabeth Warson of Healing Pathways, Colorado, her approval as an EquiLateral ® Consultant. Elizabeth is a researcher, therapist, and true advocate for EA-EMDR.

Elizabeth is seen here on the left with me, as well as Sonja Bigalke-Bannan of Heart Horses, Hawaii, and Brittani Frade of Golden Horse Counseling, Utah, at the EMDR International Association conference.

Congratulations Elizabeth!

We also might have had a lot of coffee that day. Just saying.

“If a man is crossing a river and an empty boat collides with his own skiff, even though he be a bad-tempered man he will not become very angry. But if he sees a man in the boat, he will shout at him to steer clear. If the shout is not heard, he will shout again, and yet again, and begin cursing. ...
