Moving Towards Resolution
You are not here because of “trauma” in the abstract. You are here because something specific is happening — a situation, a pattern, a reaction that is causing distress right now.
Three questions worth getting clear on at the start:
- What brings you here?
- What are your goals?
- How will you know when the problem is resolved?
You may not have clear answers yet. That is fine — finding the right answer is part of the work. Getting clearer on these questions brings you closer to resolution.
Everything in this program builds toward answering these questions. By Modules 4 and 5, you will have defined exactly what you are working on and traced it to its roots.
What you will develop
- Understanding how trauma affects the nervous system
- Emotional regulation and stabilisation skills
- Grounding techniques for managing activation
- Capacity to manage distress without overwhelm
- An inventory of trauma history and patterns
- Identification of negative beliefs (EMDR negative cognitions)
- Beginning work on positive cognitions
- Documentation that can be shared with a therapist
