Live Webinars

The International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation (ISSTD) offers a rich and engaging program of live webinars, designed to keep mental health professionals on the cutting edge of complex trauma and dissociation treatment.

Each year, ISSTD hosts a series of live webinars, ranging from 90 minutes to six hours, that delve into essential topics for assessing and treating complex trauma and dissociation. These live webinars aren’t just informative; they’re led by top experts, many of whom have pioneered key methodologies and breakthroughs in trauma studies. As part of this series, ISSTD features three to four “Living Legends” annually—renowned figures whose contributions have shaped the very foundation of trauma and dissociation treatment.

All webinars are recorded and made available as part of our recorded content library in the Online Learning Center 30-60 days following the live webinar.
