Becoming a SMART Therapist

Our mission is to bring high quality SMART care to children impacted by trauma where they live and learn. In order to do that, we are training therapists in SMART, worldwide. We’d be delighted if you were interested in joining our burgeoning community.

SMART Training

We make high quality, effective training accessible in person and remotely by fostering a learning atmosphere of curiosity, collaboration and experimentation employing video examples and experiential activities to convey concepts, theory, and skills.

SMARTmoves offers a variety of in-person and remote trainings for both individuals and agencies. Founding partners and staff blend lecture, small group discussion, clinical video, and experiential exercises. Sizes range from 10-60 participants depending on the content and format.

What SMART Clinicians Say

I left my first consultation session with a deeper clinical understanding of my client’s struggles and how they played out in a SMART session. But more importantly, I learned more about myself and how I used, or needed to revise the use, of myself within the session, in a way that benefited my client.”
