Join the MCTS Membership and Elevate Your Practice
Becoming a member of MCTS connects you with a dynamic community of trauma professionals dedicated to growth, healing, and excellence. Our membership offers invaluable resources, peer support, and professional development to help you expand your skills and deepen your impact.
The MCTS membership program is open to licensed therapists, counselors, and mental health professionals who are committed to trauma-informed care. Whether you are newly licensed or an experienced clinician, our program will help you stay connected, informed, and inspired.
Our programs are developed for licensed mental health professionals (therapists, psychologists, counselors, social workers, etc.) who are committed to providing trauma-informed care. We offer training for all levels of experience, from those new to trauma work to advanced clinicians seeking to deepen their skills.
What makes MCTS different from other continuing education programs?
MCTS is not a general CE provider. Our entire curriculum is built around trauma, from foundational principles to advanced clinical techniques. Our trainings are led by field experts and grounded in the latest research, ensuring that everything you learn is clinically relevant and directly applicable to your practice.
What types of training do you offer?
We offer foundational trainings (including EMDR Basic Training), advanced clinical workshops and topic-specific webinars. Topics range from somatic resourcing and birth trauma recovery to intergenerational trauma and attachment-focused EMDR.
Is your EMDR training EMDRIA-approved?
Our foundational EMDR Basic Training is pending approval by EMDRIA.
Can I join your membership program even if I’m not taking a training right now?
Absolutely. The MCTS membership is open to all licensed therapists and mental health professionals who want to stay connected, strengthen their expertise, and access ongoing professional support, even outside of our course offerings.
What does the membership include?
Membership connects you to a professional community and a full range of clinical and practice-building supports designed for trauma therapists. You’ll have access to our private online community and MCTS app, live study groups + group consultation, and listing in our public therapist directory. Members receive a comprehensive clinical resource library with research, didactic videos, and practical tools, along with a growing collection of specialized on-demand trainings with CE credits included at no additional cost. You’ll also receive marketing and professional development support, plus 15% off all continuing education programs, including EMDR Basic Training. All resources and community features are accessible anytime through the MCTS mobile app.
How do I update my listing in the therapist directory?
If you’re a member, you can access and update your directory profile through our community portal. Simply log in to the membership platform to make edits and ensure your information stays current.
Are your trainings culturally responsive?
Yes. We are deeply committed to inclusive and culturally responsive trauma education. Our programs are designed to equip therapists to serve clients across diverse backgrounds with sensitivity and clinical integrity.
Do you offer group rates or institutional partnerships?
We welcome collaboration with universities, clinical institutions, and organizations invested in trauma-informed care. Please contact us directly to learn more about group rates and partnership opportunities.
How do I get in touch with your team if I have questions?
At the Manhattan Center for Trauma Studies, we offer a wide range of trauma-focused courses and workshops for therapists at every stage of their career. Whether you’re new to trauma therapy or looking to enhance your existing skills, we provide the tools, knowledge, and community to support your growth.
