Somatic Transformation is both a trauma model and a somatic educational program for mental health practitioners. Radical paradigm shifts, stimulated by diverse research in Interpersonal Neurobiology, are challenging health care professionals to focus on restoring regulation of intense affect and the polyvagal nervous system.
Crafted out of emerging neurobiological research, multiple traditions of psychotherapy and ancient wisdom of healing, Somatic Transformation seeks to restore to traumatized individuals, families and communities the aliveness of embodiment with a deep sense of resilience, calm and meaning.
Somatic Transformation focuses on emotional trauma that begins in early years and emerges later in the life-span. Traumas leading to acute and chronic stress, such as medical procedures, falls, accidents, assault, natural disasters, and organized violence are addressed.
