What’s left after trauma? Abuse? Betrayal? Grief? Serious illness? Addiction? Financial loss? Relationship Breakup? Falling from grace? A Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) Model provides the framework for healing our body, mind, emotional child, and spirit.
Fischler’s Trauma Recovery Groups leverage the power of human connection to help us heal. Multimodal learning, exercises, techniques, and evidence-based therapies are harnessed to maximize our human healing potential. Psychoeducation, exercises, videos, poems, and songs facilitate learning, integration, and healing. Sessions are held online via Zoom video.
As a Certified Seeking Safety counselor, the facilitator utilizes Dr. Lisa M. Najavits’ safe practices in a safe space, including body movement, somatic exercises, polyvagal exercises, breathing exercises, grounding exercises, meditation, trauma-informed yoga, the RAIN mindfulness technique, healthy coping, resilience-building, Dr. Kristen Neff’s Self-Compassion, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Cognitive-Affective Stress Management Training, Acceptance-Based Behavioral Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). As a huge fan of Viktor Frankl’s logotherapy, the facilitator’s therapeutic approach emphasizes our freedom to choose how we respond to even the most horrific events.
The author has facilitated over 100 trauma recovery groups for trauma survivors interested in healing their bodies and minds from trauma.
Selected group members may take advantage of the healing power of human connection with fellow trauma survivors.
Importantly, members receive evidence-based psychoeducation, multimodal learning, exercises, healing practices from multiple disciplines, and resources. Shared member experiences are the cornerstone of the group.
The author is forming two closed groups of 10 – 12 members each. Selected members start and finish the 25-week group at the same time.
Subject to admission, availability, and scheduling constraints, members are invited to join either the Saturday morning groups from 8:00 AM – 10:00 AM EST or the Sunday evening groups from 8:00 PM – 10:00 PM EST.
