Continuing Education

Green Shoe Foundation offers continuing education for behavioral health providers to grow our community of collaborative partnerships and to strengthen clinical understanding of how early relational trauma shapes identity, boundaries, emotional regulation and present-day relationships. Through Pia Mellody’s Model of Developmental Immaturity and Post Induction Therapy (PIT) framework, clinicians learn how core childhood patterns drive adult dysfunction and how to guide clients toward long-term recovery rooted in self-worth, boundaries and relational clarity. 

3 free hours approved for Social Work, LPC, LMFT, and LADC in Oklahoma.

September Workshop Open for Registration

When clients heal their origin wounds, therapy becomes possibility, not survival. This workshop will help therapists harness the power of emotion through the lens of Pia Mellody’s work and the Green Shoe Foundation. We will explore the connection between emotions and carried shame that emerges from messages received in childhood.
