Welcome to Trauma and the Embodied Brain
Dear friend,
Can you recall a stressful situation that you endured alone?
Then, perhaps you later met with a friend who listened to you without judgment or agenda—creating a sense of support and safety. You likely felt your muscles relax, your heart slow down, your anxiety wane. If so, then you’ve felt the deeply relational nature of trauma and recovery.
If you’re a therapist who works with trauma survivors, you’re familiar with the many modalities available. In my own practice, I’ve discovered that one core dimension of healing is crucial—the deep, physiologically embodied relationship we hold with our clients.
Why does this matter? Research in the field of relational neuroscience offers this intriguing answer:
Trauma may be less about what happened to us and much more about who is there to support us—before, during, and after the overwhelming experience.
Ever since I started bringing this core insight into my own work years ago, profound changes have unfolded. And my mission now is to share their transformative potential with others.
That is why I’m delighted to invite you to my online course—Trauma and the Embodied Brain: A Heart-Based Training in Relational Neuroscience for Healing Trauma.
I created this program for therapists, caregivers, and others who want to support others in a deeper and more connected way—and to strengthen themselves while learning how.
I would love to share these eight weeks of learning with you—through both foundational knowledge and felt experiences. If you find this approach appealing, I do hope you’ll join us.
