This live webinar starts next weekend!

If you’ve ever felt stuck when a client freezes at “What are you noticing now?” this training offers a new perspective.

We’ll explore how Constructed Awareness helps identify each client’s unique awareness style—whether they lead with thoughts, sensations, or external focus—and how that understanding can support deeper processing throughout EMDR.

The two-day training includes 12 CE credits and offers practical strategies you can apply right away, both in sessions and in your own self-awareness work.

Dates: August 1–2, 2025
Time: 9:00 AM – 4:30 PM EST
Location: Online via Zoom
CEs: NBCC, ASWB, and EMDRIA approved (12 hours)
Cost: $247

Here’s a clip from our latest Constructed Awareness Podcast where Tyler unpacks how your default regulation “building block” really takes shape in childhood. He lays out three blocks—mental, sensation, and external—and shows how, over time, you learn which one feels safest to reach for based on your earliest attachment experiences.

When you’re stressed or uncertain, you don’t have to think twice, you just gravitate toward that familiar block. But awareness of this pattern is the first step toward widening your options for regulation and presence.

Want to discover your own orientation style? Take the Constructed Awareness Scale quiz and find out which block you naturally reach for 👉 https://constructedawarenessscale.com/

What if therapy didn’t center on fixing, but on being with?

In this clip, CA therapists share how the nonviolent approach of Constructed Awareness takes the pressure off both therapist and client. When we stop trying to change the experience and instead stay present with what’s uncomfortable, meaningful transformation begins to unfold.
