All healing is self-healing, but we also cannot heal alone. The support of community allows us to hold the wholeness of our experience, and receive the validation of being witnessed in our growth.

For therapists and practitioners, we may feel isolated in our own struggles even as we hold space for others. Our increasing knowledge and insight can feel like a liability rather than an asset, and it can be hard to explain our experiences. Similarly, we may struggle with how to hold space for others while honoring our own needs and the demands of the work. There are unique and complicated intersections between our sense of self-worth and our professional identities as “helpers.”

This is a group experience based on Inward Vision: a Trauma Recovery Workbook. You could approach this group as a learning space, where you can better understand holistic techniques for facilitating trauma healing that extends beyond the treatment room, through exploring the exercises yourself. You will also have the opportunity for personal healing, and to connect with other practitioners in an intimate space.

Over six weeks you will be guided through the prompts and themes of the workbook to support healing for the Mind, Body and Spirit. Each meeting will include:

• a live experiential practice

• in-depth exploration of concepts

• time for discussion and sharing. In between meetings you will be encouraged to engage with journal prompts for deeper processing.
  

Groups are a powerful space for transformation

I strongly believe that when it comes to trauma, it takes one to know one. Connecting with others who are moving through a similar process allows for normalizing the challenges and celebrating the successes of your individual journeys.

This is a time-limited communal space to deepen your experience and receive support.

This group is about Recovery

This means our focus will be on self-exploration, developing skills of resiliency and support, and connecting with your energetic awareness of the body. The prompts provide structure for sharing past experiences while keep the focus on the deeper themes rather than the details of what happened. (Those who wish to explore their past experiences in more detail will have the option of scheduling reduced cost individual coaching sessions.)

During our meetings you can expect to learn, connect, and practice the art of being present.

Experiential practices will be guided by me (and recorded for your future use), and some creative and writing practices will be explored directly in group.

Energetic support in the form of Reiki will be offered to those who wish to receive.
