Author’s Course For Psychologists

Greetings. My name is Tatiana Stanislavskaya, and I am the author of the training course for psychologists “War Won’t Write Off”.

It is based on my knowledge and years of experience as a trauma therapist, as well as case studies of victims exposed to missile attacks in Kyiv.

Indeed, the branches of military, clinical, and transgenerational psychology are gaining particular relevance right now. But once the war is over, they will matter even more.

You can take my course or seek knowledge from other sources. But trust me, you will definitely need it. These are the times.

More about me

You will appreciate the “War Won’t Write Off. 2.0” course if:

you spent much time and money learning to become a professional psychologist, but now you lack new knowledge concerning military, clinical, and transgenerational psychology

You got clients requesting something that you don’t know how to cope with.

You feel trapped in a professional vacuum: few colleagues understand how to work in the current conditions.

You have been affected by the war and all your previous knowledge seems to have lost its significance, while you need to keep practicing.

You are confused about concepts and terms. For example, you confuse “PTSD” with “combat mental trauma” or “combat stress”.

You have no time or great financial resources to get another higher education.

You lack professional support in dealing with difficult client cases.

Before the war you loved your profession very much, but now you are confused and feel helpless.

You are one of those specialists who is constantly learning and growing professionally.

Feedback from the participants of the 1st Stream of the course “War Won’t Write Off”

This stream was held in winter 2022-2023 – in December, January and February. During rocket and drone attacks in Kyiv. In the midst of military blackouts and communication, water, and heat outages in Ukraine.

And still we made it. Learning, communicating, and parsing client cases in the intervision group. And work. Continue to work, no matter what.
