Workshops
“The movement of withdrawal the shame brings, painful though it is, looks like wisdom when there is an onslaught of criticism or hatred. Our systems adaptively move away from the rejection of our being toward a kind of hibernation until the storm passes.”
- Bonnie Badenoch, PhD. (Heart of Trauma)
Graduate Empowerment Series
Where healing, empowerment, and academic excellence converge.
Embarking on your graduate studies is a remarkable achievement, yet it can also be intimidating and touch our deepest vulnerabilities. This series invites you into a transformative space where healing, empowerment, and academic excellence converge.
This is a trauma-informed workshop series meticulously designed to offer concrete tools, strategies, and profound self-exploration, creating a holistic approach to overcoming barriers that can emerge during the daunting process of academic pursuits. Each workshop is curated with care, focusing on the unique needs of graduate students across all stages.
Trauma Informed Practice Training
This training series provides participants with the tools, knowledge, and some expertise on how to assist clients with trauma and understand how trauma impacts the healing process. Research supports that knowledge of Trauma Informed Practice (TIP) is critical to helping clients move through barriers to healing. The training includes how embodied emotion and trauma memory is stored in the body and ways it can be released. The workshop provides both didactic and experiential exercises to facilitate deeper integration of knowledge.
