WHAT IS THE TRAUMA SUMMIT?

The Trauma Summit is a two-day conference taking place on 13th and 14th June 2022. For the very first time we are offering delegates the choice of either an in-person or virtual ticket. You can choose what works best for you.

With over 40 speakers including Dr Bruce Perry, Gabor Maté, Bessel van der Kolk, Rachel Yehuda and Kenneth Hardy you will have full access to all presentations. Over the two days trauma experts will present their latest research and understanding of trauma and trauma recovery. Discuss modalities and how trauma affects both individuals, families and communities.

The Trauma Summit creates space for everyone to network either virtually or in-person, meet delegates from around the world, take part in live Q & A sessions and meet with both virtual and live exhibitors. With over 55 hours of content, you will be spoilt for choice, but you won’t miss a thing! With both tickets you will have six months full access to all content to watch at a time convenient for you.

All Action Trauma conferences are CPD accredited and you will gain a minimum of 18 CPD points (With the option of earning more when you watch the presentations you missed online).
