Do you want to dive deeper into core psychological principles taught in psych school?

Do you want to refine your understanding of human behavior, as well as your sensitivity to trauma and developmental issues?

This training is a comprehensive deep dive into the world of developmental trauma through the unique lens of somatics. You’ll discover a detailed map of trauma patterns that can occur in each stage of life and how they uniquely manifest in nervous system dysregulation. Most importantly, you’ll learn specific, effective tools to regulate the nervous system at each stage.

Reparenting is a transformative therapeutic process where, as adults, we learn to meet and repair the unmet needs we experienced from our childhood caregivers.

For example, we may have learned to deny affection from others based on how it was modeled to us by our caregivers. During reparenting, we open up an opportunity to consciously decide how we want to accept affection in a way that meets our present needs as adults.

We learn to go through this process of acknowledging unmet needs by addressing the root cause of it - the imprinted patterns left on our nervous system. By regulating and strengthening the nervous system in these moments, we learn to meet challenging moments with spaciousness, responsiveness, and conscious choice.
