Dr. Colin A. Ross, MD
Creator of Trauma Model Therapy
Texas Medical Doctor #J0652
Psychiatrist
As the creator of Trauma Model Therapy (TMT), I have dedicated my career to understanding the profound impact of psychological trauma on the human self. My work is rooted in the conviction that trauma is the primary risk factor for a wide array of mental disorders. I would love to work with you as you pursue TMT Certification, or as you work to become a TMT Consultant.
Who This Consultation Is For
I provide high-level consultation for professionals and organizations navigating the most complex landscapes of psychiatry and psychotherapy. This is ideal for:
Trauma Clinicians: Practitioners working with Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), Complex PTSD, and "treatment-resistant" cases who require an advanced understanding of structural dissociation.
Researchers and Academics: Professionals interested in the testable scientific predictions of the Trauma Model and its implications for the genetics and etiology of mental illness.
What I Can Offer
My consultation services draw upon decades of research, clinical practice, and leadership within the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation (ISST-D):
Complex Case Conceptualization: Expert analysis of complex clinical presentations, helping you move beyond symptom clusters to understand the structural modification of the self.
Structural Dissociation Expertise: Consultation on the specific nuances of treating DID and other dissociative disorders, based on my proposed modifications to the theory of structural dissociation.
Benefits of Consultation with Me
Trauma Model Therapy (TMT) Consultation: Earn your required consultation hours for TMT Certification or as part of your TMT Consultant in Training process.
Access to Decades of Research: You receive direct insight from the primary source of the Trauma Model, backed by nearly 300 peer-reviewed publications and decades of psychiatric data.
A Solution to "Stuck" Cases: By applying a unified model of trauma, you can find a path forward for clients who have failed to respond to traditional, symptom-focused psychiatric treatments.
