Neurotrauma Integration is an advanced training designed for practitioners who wish to develop a clear, structured, and neurologically grounded approach to working with trauma.
The program focuses on:
the neurobiology of trauma
nervous system states
regulation and sequencing of trauma work
practical session structure
The training does not engage in depth psychology, personal structures, or long-term psychodynamic work.
Instead, it offers a concrete neurotrauma framework for facilitating trauma-informed sessions based on nervous system–oriented work.
Neurotrauma Integration is developed as an advanced specialization within the Spiritual Integrative Practice™ educational system and is delivered through the In Poise Integrative Institute.
Neurotrauma Integration is intended for individuals who already have foundational experience in working with people and who wish to deepen their understanding of trauma through nervous system–based work.
The program is intended for:
psychologists, psychotherapists, and counselors
coaches and other helping professionals
somatic practitioners
participants of the Spiritual Integrative Practice training who wish to pursue an advanced specialization
To enroll in the Neurotrauma Integration program, applicants must meet one of the following two requirements:
completion of Spiritual Integrative Practice – Level 1 (Foundation of Integrative Depth Work)

(applications are reviewed on an individual basis)
Completion of Spiritual Integrative Practice – Professional Level 2 is not required for enrollment in this program.

Neurotrauma Integration is delivered in an online format, with recorded lectures and regular group sessions.
The training includes:
recorded lectures available through the Institute’s online platform
group integration calls
group supervision
independent work and written assignments
All theoretical lectures are pre-recorded and available throughout the duration of the program, allowing for flexible participation and self-paced learning.
The total duration of the program is 12 months.
first 6 months: participation in modules, lectures, supervision, and group calls
following 6 months: integration and completion of assignments
This structure allows participants to integrate the material gradually and apply it in practice.
The total training volume is approximately 210 hours, including:
theoretical lectures
group calls
group supervision
independent work and assignment preparation
final written assignments
During the program, the following are provided:
6 group integration calls
6 group supervision sessions
Group calls are intended for:
clarification of the course material
integration of theory
exchange of experiences
Supervision is focused on:
working with concrete practice examples
mapping nervous system states
session structure and sequencing
practitioner capacity in trauma work
During the training, participants are required to complete three written integrative assignments.
The assignments are designed to support understanding and practical application of neurotrauma work, rather than academic evaluation.
The three mandatory assignments are:
Mapping Nervous System States
An analysis of work with a client through identifying and describing nervous system states, without entering psychodynamic interpretation.
Session Structure and Sequencing
A presentation of one or more sessions focusing on the flow of work, regulation, pauses, and closing of the process.
Practitioner Capacity Reflection
A personal reflection on one’s own nervous system, boundaries, and capacity when working with trauma.
Assignments are submitted in written form and serve as a basis for supervision work.
Evaluation is based on:
engagement with and understanding of the theoretical material
participation in group calls and supervision
quality of knowledge integration demonstrated in the written assignments
Evaluation is formative, with the aim of supporting professional development rather than formal testing.
the complete online program (6 modules)
access to all recorded lectures
6 group integration calls
6 group supervision sessions
evaluation and review of written assignments
issuance of the Practitioner Certificate
Participants have access to the Institute’s educational platform for 12 months, including:

all additional information regarding the start of the program
The number of places in the program is limited in order to maintain the quality of supervision work. The program is intended for serious practitioners seeking a structured and responsible specialization in the field of neurotrauma work.
Upon successful completion of the program, participants receive the:
Neurotrauma Integration – Practitioner Certificate
(Advanced Specialization)
The certificate confirms that the participant has completed an advanced specialization in the field of neurotrauma work, developed within the Spiritual Integrative Practice™ educational system.
The certificate is issued by the In Poise Integrative Institute.
Neurotrauma Integration – Practitioner
Neurotrauma Integration is a specialized training focused on working with trauma through the nervous system, regulation, and a neurologically grounded approach within the session. Unlike the SIP Practitioner program, which encompasses a broader integrative methodology, this program is specifically focused on:
the neurobiology of trauma
recognizing and mapping nervous system states
somatic and implicit trauma dynamics
sequencing and structure of trauma-informed sessions
This training does not engage in depth psychology or clinical diagnosis.
The approach supports practitioners in working with trauma within their professional scope of practice.
The Neurotrauma Integration program lasts a total of 12 months, divided into:
the first 6 months – participation in modules and theoretical content
the following 6 months – integration of knowledge through supervision and assignment work
The total training volume is approximately 210 hours, including lectures, group calls, supervision, and assignments.
To apply for the Neurotrauma Integration – Practitioner program, applicants must meet one of the following two requirements:
completion of the SIP Foundational Level (Foundation of Depth Work)
or
relevant professional education or experience in fields such as psychology, psychotherapy, counseling, coaching, somatic work, or other related disciplines

The program is designed to provide both theoretical and practical structure; however, it is an advanced specialization. It is recommended that participants have:
experience working with people
a professional background or completion of the SIP Foundation if they are not professionals
Without these prerequisites, a candidate may not have a sufficient foundation for responsible work in the context of trauma.
