Emotional Brain Training Provider Certification Program



About Emotional Brain Training

The Institute for Health Solutions offers the EBT Professional Certification Program for health professionals (e.g., PhD, MD, RD, NP, MFT, LCSW, LPC, DrPH) leading to certification as emotional brain practitioners.

EBT was developed at the University of California, San Francisco during the last 30 years, offering an evidence-based program that integrates stress physiology, attachment theory, brain-based behavioral therapy and neuroplasticity. EBT is based on a new paradigm in health care of using positive emotional plasticity to re-encode self-regulatory circuitry that decreases chronic stress, the root cause of 80% of health problems.

The professional program includes personal training to improve the brain set point of practitioners so that they embody the method and clinical training that integrates science, theory and practice leading to developing a meaningful, effective and successful clinical practice.
