A unique and integrative approach to somatics for a liberated, vibrant life. 

“Many times trauma in a person decontextualized over time can look like personality. Trauma in a family decontextualized over time can look like family traits, trauma decontextualized in a people over time can look like culture and it takes time to slow it down so you can begin to discern what’s what.”

Experience Results with Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE)®

TRE® takes your healing to the next level. We move at your pace to release deep patterns of chronic muscular stress, tension, and trauma for a liberated and vibrant life. TRE helps the body expand beyond a contracted state, which allows sustainable nervous system healing to take place. This may result in lessening or resolution of symptoms of depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and chronic pain (according to preliminary research studies). A reduction in depression and anxiety of more than 40% was reported after 12-weeks, which is why this is the length of our group program, Healing the Roots, and we recommend a series of twelve 1-1 sessions. 

Through TRE®, with a certified provider, you will receive expert support for moving through nervous system states, deepening your ability to self-regulate, and engaging in co-regulation. Experience TRE in our 1-1 sessions and in our group programs.
