In this episode of Scaling Up Your Impact, we explore the ASSYST protocol—an evidence-informed, nonverbal intervention designed to support clients in acute distress by helping stabilize their nervous systems and prevent the onset of PTSD.
Host Kelly Smyth-Dent breaks down when and how to use ASSYST, how it differs from traditional coping strategies, and why it’s such a powerful addition to your clinical toolbox—especially for clients experiencing recent or ongoing trauma.
You’ll learn how ASSYST works in session, who it’s for, and why it’s both a trauma intervention and a triage tool. Whether you're an EMDR therapist or not, this protocol has something practical to offer.
