The Healing Trauma Program is for anyone who wants to develop self-regulation skills so they can become a greater healing presence for others, and to learn directly from some of the most respected trauma educators, researchers, and clinical practitioners of our time. This can include helping professionals of all kinds: yoga teachers, frontline health-care workers, coaches, educators, community leaders, parents, bodyworkers, and every-day people who encounter people suffering from trauma (or have experienced trauma themselves). It’s for all who need to know how to embody a sense of groundedness and connection.

Please note: The Healing Trauma Program is a 9-month educational program and is not a replacement for therapy.

We encourage you to consider whether or not this course is the right fit for you. This is not a determination of your value or abilities, simply an invitation to consider if The Healing Trauma Program is best matched to support your journey at this time.

The Healing Trauma Program is a self-guided, online nine-month program. It is not individual or group psychotherapy, nor does it replace appropriate medical or psychiatric/psychological treatment tailored to your individualized needs. If you are currently struggling with an active and acute trauma state, are trying to manage impulses for self-harm, or have recently experienced severe and overwhelming trauma, this is not the right time to engage in this program.

You may also find that this program is not supportive if you experience significant dissociative symptoms. Dissociation symptoms can include (but are not limited to) :

• Severe difficulty remembering personal information or history
• Feeling like the world around you is unreal
• Feeling like you are looking at yourself from the outside
• Shifts and changes in your identity and expressions

Given the nature of the material covered, there is a potential for you to experience activation or triggering. The program is intended to deliver helpful tools for nervous system regulation and support your healing journey; it is not individual or group therapy, and will not have the direct and extensive support that a therapist would be able to offer. If you are still unsure if this program is a good fit for you right now, we encourage you to discuss your situation with a doctor or therapist before purchasing. Please remember, The Healing Trauma Program is a 9-month educational program and is not a replacement for therapy.

You can expect to have approximately 1 hour to 1.25 hours of coursework per week. This time will include 30 minutes of teachings and 40 minutes of guided practices per week, plus one monthly live Going Deeper learning session, two monthly optional Practice Sessions, and two monthly optional Office Hours with Jeffrey.

For more detailed program schedule information and key dates, please refer to the Program section of the website.

The Office Hours will be held on the second Thursday of every month at 8pm ET/5pm PT and the third Thursday of every month at 12pm ET/9am PT. The Going Deeper broadcasts will be held on the fourth Thursday of every month at 8pm ET/5pm PT.

This program is considered “blended learning”—some of the information will be presented live and some will be prerecorded, so you can participate when it’s convenient for you.

About 1.25 hours per week. This includes 40 minutes of practice time per week. There will be two additional opportunities per month for you to practice alongside a dedicated facilitator (and your fellow students). These are optional.

No problem. All of the online sessions will be available to watch on demand within two business days after they are broadcast.

Please read all about the curriculum on our curriculum page.

There is a special virtual gathering on February 3, 2024 where you’ll have the opportunity to meet your fellow students and open the space in a sacred way. The coursework will begin on February 5, 2024.
