[IN PERSON] For Professionals: Silent Battle
August 1 @ 10:30 am - 12:30 pm
Please join other professionals as we learn more about the nervous system and how it reacts to stress. Each person we meet has an internal fight going on. Those who have experienced trauma, including the kids on your caseload, are fighting every day to just be. Learn how you can aid in the healing journey.
Breanna Gronli, MSW, LGSW works with Sojourn Counseling Group. As a trauma certified private practice clinician, Breanna believes in the power of healing. Breanna’s unique perspective comes from her experience of being adopted at the age of 10 from the foster care system after a difficult childhood. Breanna draws from her own traumatic childhood experiences to help others heal. She has all ten aces but never let this stop her from healing. She is currently working towards certification in Registered Play Therapy with extensive training in Trust Based Relational Interventions, a trauma modality created by Karen Purvis and colleagues. Breanna is also working toward a certification in Somatic Experiencing a modality working with the nervous system and the impact of trauma created by Dr. Peter Levine. Before attending graduate school, Breanna worked for 7 years in the social work field in various capacities. She was a rule 25 assessor for chemically addicted individuals, child protection specialist, forensic investigator (Corner House trained), foster care/adoption licensor, and Guardian ad litem for both children’s and family court. As a clinician, she works alongside foster families, adopted families, and parents with children experiencing symptoms of trauma, believing it only takes one caring adult in a child’s life to make a difference.
