Are you a dedicated practitioner in the fields of psychotherapy, social work, mental health, or wellness coaching who senses that your patients’ and clients’ traumatic experiences require more than conventional interventions?
You’re not alone, says Manuela Mischke-Reeds, MFT, a clinical therapist and international somatic psychology teacher with over 25 years of experience.
In fact, as Manuela began her career working with survivors of torture long ago, she realized they didn’t possess the spoken language to express the complexity of their pain, which included flashbacks, night terrors, anxiety, depression, and more...
Yet, their bodies could express it all.
As Manuela learned the body’s expressions and somatic patterns, she began to see the healing pathways where fear and healing coexisted in the body — and discovered the body’s innate ability to heal through this powerful silent language.
These discoveries inspired Manuela to create her own Somatic Trauma Therapy approach, which draws on various somatic therapy practices that are rooted in polyvagal theory and includes key practices from Hakomi Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, and Innate Somatic Intelligence Trauma Therapy.
As a professional, you can add skills to your existing practice and develop internal capabilities, allowing you to be present with your clients’ suffering, assess which embodiment tools they’ll benefit most from, and empower them to trust their own innate somatic intelligence that lies beneath the trauma.
Join us for a brand-new hour-long event with Manuela as she shares how you can expand your inner Soma toolkit with the Somatic Trauma Therapy approach — to more effectively bring healing to both your clients and yourself.
As Manuela will explain, just as important as supporting your client’s journey towards a whole and healthy life is your inside-out transformation as their healer. To effectively and lovingly guide your clients into the healing potential they hold in their bodies and hearts, you must first mediate your own triggers, projections, transference, and more.
During this workshop, she’ll share a ventral vagal practice, a powerful embodiment tool for your own nervous system regulation and grounding — which you’ll need to successfully guide your clients into safe embodiment processes.
Join Manuela and learn about the art and skills of integrating somatic psychology tools into your healing practice.
