Somewhere around hour 9 of our 11-hour CE training in Cognitive Processing Therapy, our group practices collectively crossed a threshold: from “learning a modality” to “gently challenging each other’s stuck points in everyday conversation.”
Suddenly, no statement goes unexamined. “I’m exhausted” is met with “What’s the evidence for that belief?” and at least one of us is mentally drafting a worksheet at all times.
All jokes aside, there’s something grounding about a team of clinicians leaning this hard into evidence-based care. The note-taking, the thoughtful debates, the occasional “wait, am I the stuck point?” moment—it all comes from the same place: a genuine commitment to showing up as skillfully and responsibly as possible for trauma survivors.
Because if we’re doing this work, we’re doing it with intention, curiosity, and a willingness to keep learning—even when our brains are full and it’s hour 11.
