Trauma Intensives

Trauma therapy intensives are either 2, 3, 4, or 5 days long and we meet one-on-one for 3 hours each day. They take place at my office in Holland, MI or virtually. There's a loose scaffolding we follow but it's very much an organic process completely tailored to what your body, mind, and nervous system need most. Through a collaborative and highly integrative approach, we will go into depth in the following key areas:

• Exactly why you get stuck in trauma responses and how to shift this protective patterning

• Uncover and access your embodied resources and resilience and learn to rely on their innate capacity to support you in your healing process

• How to regulate your nervous system with powerful and effective neural exercises

• Effectively address your particular physiological, emotional, and cognitive symptoms at their root using a highly integrative approach

• Develop a rhythm of using neural exercises to form the foundation of not only nervous system regulation, but nervous system re-patterning and expansion

• Understand your polyvagal nervous system in order to feel safe in your body, relationships and in the world

• Unburden protective parts and child-like parts, uncovering the wisdom they hold within

• Through interpersonal neurobiology, move from entrenched patterns of chaos and rigidity into “the river of integration”

• Resolve traumatic memories at their root through powerful reconsolidation practices that allow memories to be refiled in the area of the brain where they belong

• Engage in attachment processes that facilitate resolution of relational conflict

• Metabolize the two core emotions that always result from trauma: anger & grief

• Transmute trauma into connection, joy & pursuit of your deepest desires

• Encounter post-traumatic growth and embrace your highest calling and purpose

• Access and learn to consistently be in tune with your inner guidance

• Experience spiritual reconnection regardless of your faith tradition

The trauma therapy intensive I offer is precisely what I needed—but never encountered—during my 10+ years of being debilitated by severe PTSD, complex trauma, depression & anxiety. I come to this sacred work not only as one who has extensive trauma training and credentials, but as one who knows the terrain of trauma intimately and can guide you as your own healing journey evolves and deepens.​

Investment:

5 day trauma intensive: $4500

4 day trauma intensive: $3600

3 day trauma intensive: $2700

2 day trauma intensive: $1800

Trauma intensives involve an initial upfront investment, but usually prove to be more cost effective than regular therapy or coaching due the sheer amount of healing clients experience in a very short period of time. I like to think of each day of an intensive as equivalent to 6 weeks of regular sessions. A single 5 day intensive is like 30 weeks of standard sessions. Of course everyone’s experience varies, but no one has ever walked away disappointed or lukewarm. In fact, I regularly hear from clients who completed an intensive and they tend to use phrases like “That was the best investment of my life” and “I am in awe of how different I feel now.”
