Additional Trainings

Title: LSCI 101: LSCI Overview

This 2-hour Overview training will help participants understand LSCI as a brain-based, trauma-informed intervention that integrates easily with existing behavior management processes and programs. The LSCI Conflict Cycle™ is explained as a fundamental paradigm for understanding the dynamics of escalating conflict and no-win power struggles between adults and kids. Participants will gain specific skills for breaking the Conflict Cycle and de-escalating problem situations with young people.

Title: LSCI 105: The Double Struggle Intervention

In LSCI terms, a Double Struggle is a problem situation that begins within an adult. The struggle is between what that adult knows they should do professionally and their internal conflict that makes it difficult for them to carry out this professional responsibility. This 2.5 hour training program teaches professionals how to effectively carry out the Double Struggle Intervention, a stage-by-stage verbal process for use with adults who inadvertently fuel conflict or miss opportunities to effectively engage young people.

This course is designed as a follow up to LSCI Certification, as it uses the six stage intervention framework. It is ideal for teachers, mental health professionals, paraprofessionals, administrators, and anyone mentoring or supervising professionals who work with young people.

Title: LSCI 402: LSCI Refresher Training

While certification in the skills of LSCI is a lifetime accreditation, many participants over the years have told us how valuable it is for them to formally review, discuss, and practice LSCI skills on a regular basis. The LSCI 402 course offers professionals the opportunity to do just that!

The one-day, live LSCI Refresher Training provides a review of the fundamental skills of LSCI, including:

• The LSCI Conflict Cycle™
• The impact of chronic stress and trauma on the brain and behavior of young people
• How to regulate the emotional responses of young people
• Trauma-informed intervention practices
• Relationship-building skills and strategies

LSCI 402 is an interactive training that draws heavily upon professionals’ real-life experience using LSCI to discuss, offer feedback, and teach advanced strategies for carrying out the six stages of LSCI. Participants will:

• Engage in extensive role play of intervention skills
• Thoroughly de-brief these experiences with the Senior Trainer and their colleagues.
