9am - 5pm (EST*)

6 CEUs for LMSWs, LCSWs, and LMHCs


We need a different way to talk about trauma; a way that encompasses all the elements we need to help our patients and clients and our loved ones heal. We also cannot talk about trauma without speaking about Vicarious Trauma, Trauma-Informed Care and new strategies for working with individuals who have been affected by trauma.

Please join us and learn a different way of looking at trauma, of understanding it, and of addressing it:

  1. Master the new strategies to working with those who have been traumatized
  2. Master the principles and the do's and don'ts of trauma-informed care
  3. Prevent and address vicarious trauma
  4. Master the simple steps that make a huge difference

Friends: We look forward to continuing to serve you; so you help cease suffering for our patients and clients; so you help elevate your agency, yourself, and the field as a whole.

HERE'S WHAT OUR ATTENDEES ARE SAYING ABOUT US:

"Karen is the most warm and wonderful facilitator. She is so natural, informational, sharing, and engaging. I gleaned so much from this course that I can implement with my clients. I appreciate the supportive feeling and the value of collective learning."

- Elizabeth, LCSW-R

"Although I have taken a complete graduate-level course just covering trauma, there was much new information that seemed very helpful. The way the steps are broken down was concrete, and done in a way I can envision myself knowing how to implement."

- Benjamin, LSW

"Karen makes learning fun and interactive. Working with clients in long periods of grief and how the grief may be serving them. What is the context of their beliefs and how we work with them around their beliefs."

- Christine, LMSW

"It was my first webinar with Karen being the sole facilitator and I absolutely loved it! Effective presentation; warm and welcoming environment, and feeling challenged and inspired to continue learning!"

- Otylia, LCSW-R

"Reminders for clinician's self-care when working with traumatized individuals. The concepts/methods are succinct and not overly complex. It was a great refresher for working with this specific population."

- Jessica, LCSW



There are a handful of states that the NASW does not cover because those states want to maintain their independent authority to approve, or not, providers and courses. In New York State, the Office of Professions controls the approval process. We are an approved provider by the NY State Office of Professions. In other words:

  • In the State of New York, SWEET Institute is approved by the Office of Professions under Dr. Sidor Psychiatric Services as a CEU provider for social workers (#SW-0471) and mental health counselors (#MHC-0127).
  • Our live and self-study webinars are individually approved by the NASW National CE Approval Program in 46 additional states. SWEET courses are NOT approved by the NASW National CE Approval Program in: Michigan, New Jersey, and West Virginia.
