This 10.5-hour continuing education program is designed to enhance the professional competencies of graduate-level counselors and licensed mental health professionals by integrating Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, nature-based/ecotherapy approaches, and somatic therapies within a trauma-informed care framework. The training emphasizes neurobiological, developmental, and relational perspectives that support evidence-based treatment of trauma across the lifespan. This CE retreat also provides trauma-informed, evidence-based training for clinicians working with children, adolescents, neurodivergent adults, and individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).
Rooted in both theoretical knowledge and applied techniques, the program supports professional development, personal reflection, and a strengthened sense of clinical purpose. A collaborative and supportive learning environment encourages meaningful dialogue, peer consultation, and connection among participants.
Through structured lectures, experiential activities, and case-based discussions, participants will gain practical skills in trauma assessment, treatment planning, and intervention. The curriculum promotes a deeper understanding of trauma responses, mechanisms of healing, and the importance of therapeutic attunement, cultural humility, and ethical practice in fostering lasting change.
Together, renew your balance, lead with purpose, and connect through adventure.

Dr. Linda Timme, DSW, MSW, LCSW, LCSW-C
Dr. Linda is the Founder and Clinical & Continuing Education Director of Renew Psychotherapy Center, LLC, an organization that provides psychotherapy services, professional training, and continuing education programs in the United States and international settings.
Dr. Linda is a transformational leader and a passionate advocate for global wellness, dedicated to holistic mental health care. With over 15 years of experience, she has helped countless individuals through her innovative therapeutic approaches, immersive retreats, and professional development programs.
As a Certified EMDR Therapist, Advanced Trainer, and EMDRIA-approved Consultant, Dr. Linda specializes in trauma recovery, couples therapy, and organizational leadership. Her work blends evidence-based therapies like EMDR, CBT, DBT, and SFT to empower clients and clinicians to tackle complex challenges and create meaningful, lasting change.
Dr. Linda's journey is truly inspiring. As a first-generation immigrant and dual citizen of the USA and Peru, she began her career as a psychologist in Peru, supporting Latinx and BIPOC/AAPI communities. After moving to the United States, she earned her Master’s and Clinical Social Work license and a Doctorate in Social Work: Leadership and Education. Her story embodies resilience and a deep commitment to enhancing mental health and wellness around the world.
As a thought leader, Dr. Linda loves to foster growth and resilience in others. She organizes and leads wellness retreats, including her signature Global Renew Retreats, which provide transformative experiences combining advanced therapeutic training and personal renewal. These retreats focus on connection, professional development, and personal growth, featuring engaging workshops on modern modalities, mindfulness, eco-therapy, and leadership skills. She tailors her workshops to meet the unique needs of therapists, clinicians, and leaders, equipping them with valuable tools for both their personal and professional lives.
Beyond her clinical and educational efforts, Dr. Linda is also an enthusiastic writer and researcher. She has shared her insights on telehealth, EMDR therapy, grief, and trauma recovery through various publications, and she is deeply committed to community and global wellness initiatives. Her contributions to the mental health field have earned her recognition, including the prestigious Candela Award.
At the heart of Dr. Linda’s mission is a desire to inspire healing, resilience, and connection. She guides individuals and professionals toward greater well-being, purpose, and fulfillment. Whether through her therapeutic work, leadership programs, or uplifting retreats, Dr. Linda is dedicated to making a positive and lasting impact on the lives she touches and the communities she serves.
This 4.0-hour course focuses on the application of trauma-focused assessment and intervention methods with neurodivergent adults and individuals with IDD, including EMDR therapy (AIP model; 8-phase, 3-pronged protocol), CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, sensory-integration approaches, and eco-somatic interventions. These methods are supported by contemporary peer-reviewed literature documenting high rates of trauma and PTSD in individuals with IDD and autism, the under-recognition of trauma-related symptoms, and emerging evidence for EMDR and adapted trauma-focused interventions in these populations.
The program also addresses broader practice content, such as trauma-informed care in disability services, the neurobiological vulnerabilities associated with FASD, diagnostic overshadowing, and systemic barriers that limit access to equitable trauma treatment.
Throughout the workshop, the instructor reviews the empirical support, limitations, and risks of each approach (e.g., limited trials for EMDR and sensory-based interventions in these populations and the potential for destabilization or sensory overload). Emphasis is placed on preparation, stabilization, environmental accommodations, collaborative pacing, and criteria for when EMDR or trauma processing may be contraindicated or require modification. The content is designed to enhance advanced trauma-focused, neurodiversity-affirming practice.
At the conclusion of this program, participants will be able to:

Dr. Rocio Hernandez, PhD, LPCC, LMFTC
Dr. Cio Hernández is CEO and founder of Got This! Inc. and The Be It Foundation. She is a psychotherapist in California, Texas, and Hawaii where she specializes in goal-getting, anxiety, relationships, safety through connection, childhood and trauma. In her private practice, she offers EMDR and other modalities to replace haunting memories with a new outlook on life or to help people reach a positive life goal...any goal...
For over 20 years she has worked on public health policy, led many community initiatives, served as a bilingual Public Information Officer, been on the Kaiser IRB research board, taught continuing education, and has served as a First 5 Children and Families Commissioner for over 16 years.
Dr. Cio lives her values of ubiquitous synchronicity by tackling whole person care and health parity from the individual to the inclusive collective. She is the President and Founder of Levelation International, a nonprofit whose mission is to promote world resilience. Her health care leadership doctoral research in test-anxiety using her first version of Got This! App has now been applied to university and academic strategies to increase the professional pipeline for health and other fields. Her corporate plans have been sought to improve the almost 50% of the workforce struggling with personal issues that get manifested in the workforce. Cio sees a world where coping is elevated for all, to promote playful co-existence in a safe and connected world. Although Cio believes in making work a playground for growth, she loves to play too. She runs half-marathons around the world, enjoys exploring new spaces, and loves talking to strangers.
Have you ever wondered why some children and adults seem more resilient to others? Have you noticed that some of your friends freeze when you wish they would just run away? This course will walk you through the elements of childhood trauma from understanding the brain and behavior to how to impact positive change beyond the things that have happened to us. This course explores children’s brain development—from anatomy to symptoms—and evidence-based approaches to address both symptoms and underlying causes. It uses an AIP approach combined with Polyvagal Theory through the eight phases of EMDR therapy, using a social development framework to map history and identify targets by age. This intermediate-level course introduces the impact of trauma on schools, workplace, and relationships.
