I found the Professional Certificate in Understanding Dissociative Identity Disorder (Advanced) course to be a valuable learning experience. As a psychologist in Brazil, I was looking to gain a deeper understanding of DID and how to work with clients who have this condition. The course provided a solid foundation in the theoretical and practical aspects of DID, and I appreciated the emphasis on cultural sensitivity and diversity. One of the things that stood out to me was the discussion on the importance of trauma-informed care and how to create a safe and supportive therapeutic environment. The course materials were well-organized, and the instructors were responsive to questions and comments. My only suggestion for improvement would be to include more examples of how to adapt the treatment approaches to different cultural contexts. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others in the field.
