This 8-week deep-dive class is open to those who have attended the Trauma Healing 101 introductory workshop (see above) and want to go deeper into their understanding and treatment of trauma in their practice. Participants will earn the designation of “trauma-informed” on completion of this course.
- Week One: Your presence is the agent of healing. Managing boundaries, structure and staying in your lane.
- Week Two: The Pyramid of Traumatic Experience. From trauma happening now to prenatal, epigenetic and past-life trauma – what’s yours to do, what to refer and how to discern the difference.
- Week Three: All about the brain. Survival responses. The window of tolerance. How to desensitize distressing images, nightmares and events.
- Week Four: Demonstration and practice session
- Week Five: Trauma and the Rule of Two: why trauma symptoms show up when they do. Presenting issues vs feeder issues, memory repair and rightsizing.
