Our mission and philosophy
Sonoma Psychotherapy Training Institute provides evidence-based, post-graduate education and training in the diagnosis and treatment of survivors of trauma and neglect through public workshops and home study programs.
Sonoma PTI conducts scholarly research that supports the development and delivery of high quality educational and training programs.
We are committed to foster understanding, compassion and competence in clinical assessment and treatment of childhood neglect and abuse and lifespan trauma.
We promote the use of findings and principles from positive psychology in prevention and treatment programs.
We strive to maintain the highest standards of scholarship for historical depth and recent findings.
Our programs present context on issues where there is current consensus as well as where there is scholarly disagreement.
