Trauma Informed Foundations
Spark your trauma sensitive skillset!
Foster confidence and competence in your practice through this live training.
If you are ready to:
➺ Expand your knowledge of the nervous system and feel prepared to meet your client’s survival skills that show up in session.
➺ Discover supportive adaptations and practices your clients and customers might need (but not know how to ask for)
➺ Strengthen your scope of practice and signature brand of trauma informed care, so you’re not boundary-less and burnt out
➺ Shift language and systems so your clients and customers feel more invited, included and cared for. And, so your boundaries are clear and your capacity is honored!
But you’re not sure how to get there on your own . . .
Our live training* gathers on Wednesdays: October 9th, 16th, 23rd and 30th, from 1-4 PM EST
and early bird registration opens soon!
*plus replays, curriculum and resources to bring trauma informed theory to practice.
Foundations is here for you & your business!
Foundations is:
✦ Live. We gather on zoom (come as you are) and our training is recorded, too. This can be helpful for those who can’t make it live, or appreciate catching up at the time stamps they checked out (no shame, I’ve been there).
✦ Experiential. l teach, but it’s not all lecture. You will be invited to play with trauma sensitive concepts and somatic practices, and notice what nourishes your own nervous system.
✦ Comprehensive. Our live (and recorded) trainings paired with the training portal contain resources, trauma informed to-dos, and additional coursework to help you put trauma informed theory into practice. We can’t cover everything in 4 weeks, but I can offer you supportive materials to turn to while you’re doing the real work of stumbling through offering trauma sensitive care.
✦ Trauma Informed. My intention is to hold a trauma informed space where your nervous system and capacity as honored. You are not my client, but you are not just a student. Some material is sensitive in nature, and will always be delivered thoughtfully and gently.
Who is it for?
If you have clients or customers, or work with people in any capacity, this training is probably for you.

“I had such an enjoyable time learning from Jess! The group container had so many different variations of facilitators that it helped me see how parts of my business needed to be improved. The valuable insight of Jess on all things TIC has been helping me support my clientele for years and this foundational course was exactly what I needed to feel more supported in my standing on TIC and how to support others and myself. The teachings were simple and easy to digest but definitely will have a long lasting impact on everyone that I have the pleasure of working with.”
- Sara, Breathworker + Foundations Student
When you join, you will receive:
Forever access to a comprehensive curriculum with neuroscience, trauma-informed teachings and language, and trauma-informed best practices. So you can get guidance when you need it, even after our training is complete.
A self-paced trauma-informed intake process to bring your intake from it’s-just-what-I’ve-been-doing to holy-heck-this-works (for you and your clients).
Actual somatic practices that you can carry with you. If you work with clients and it’s in your scope, awesome, share them! If not, you can support yourself through challenging moments.
DREAM WITH ME. WHAT IF . . .
You don’t need to be perfect. You need support at a nervous system level so you can weather client whoopsies and vulnerability hangovers from social media launches.
You don’t need to start over. You need trauma-informed methodologies and best practices to reference as you look at your practice with a fresh perspective and make small yet powerful shifts.
You don’t need to be small and quiet so you never cause harm. You need to practice discerning between care and fawning, practitioner-ing and people pleasing. You need deep care as you practice amending and accounting for inevitable harm.
You don’t need to do this alone or just try harder. You need a training that feels relatively safe for your nervous system. Encouragement to be client centered and you-centered, considering your capacities and needs. You’re allowed!

Hey healer! If you’re feeling drawn, come train with me.
It’s my greatest joy to hold space for trauma-informed practitioners. I’ll celebrate your wisdom and courage and offer everything I know to help you shape a more trauma-informed practice. In this space, you get to be held as a wise practitioner and a tender human, too.
I’d be glad to have you and your nervous system along for this journey.
