Founded in 1984, NESTTD is incorporated as a nonprofit organization. The society has its headquarters in Massachusetts and has members from Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont.  NESTTD is an affiliate society of the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation (ISSTD).

Don't miss NESTTD's Full day workshop with
Diana Fosha, PhD, on September 25, 2010.

Hello and Welcome,

Whether you are a new member, a returning member, or just checking us out we would like you to truly feel welcome here. Please know that NESTTD is all about the members. We search out and provide speakers that members have requested and that we feel will increase our understanding and treatment of trauma and dissociation. We also want to be a conduit for you to be able to reach out and connect with other professionals working in this field.

This website is packed with information about who we are, our quarterly workshops, our upcoming and past speakers, other training opportunities, and a “find a therapist” section. If you decide to become a member you will have access to our present and past newsletters, our forums on trauma, and our advertising section. We also have a private members’ directory. Please see our membership section for more information on the benefits of membership.

NESTTD is a volunteer organization so the members organize and run every aspect. We encourage you to get involved in one of the committees. It is the best and easiest way to build relationships with other professionals with like minded interests. Please see the committee page for more information.

Please contact any of the Board members or committee chairs with any questions or concerns.

Thank you,

Ken Sipe, President, and the board of NESTTD

*Members, please check out the Forum and contribute to the following question and others that are there. You must first log in at the top of the screen to access the Forum.

The IFS model maintains that the Self holds all the resources a person needs. The healing takes place by repairing ruptured attachments between wounded exiles and the Self. Fran Grossman took clear exception to this, stating that many trauma survivors do not have within them the capacity to heal and instead need outside resources. What are your views on this? What are your experiences with clients with whom accessing Self-energy is a challenge? Please feel free to share success and questions in doing this delicate work.
