In Conversation with Stephen Porges: Polyvagal Theory, Trauma, Co-Regulation, and Healing

Learn about the neurobiology of trauma and healing from Stephen Porges, whose polyvagal theory explains why trauma responses, including dissociation, are adaptive, even heroic; and why safety cues, co-regulation, social connection, and embodied approaches are vital to healing.  

Clinical Lecture Series trainings are for students, professionals, and community members interested in therapeutic practices that are anti-oppressive, intersectional, and centered on self-determination. 

Free of charge for UNC School of Social Work students, faculty, staff, field instructors.
