Overview
Trauma-informed care entails knowing how to expertyl lead clients into traumatic memories without retraumatizing them.
If you want to safely guide clients into their past, release repressed emotions without retraumatization, and guide them back as empowered versions of themselves, choose the full pay or 4 payment plan option below.
Only once the body feels safe, will it let us venture into the unsafe territories it has stored away. Supporting your clients starts with a trauma-informed approach.
Trauma-Informed
EFT Practitioner
When you drown, it doesn’t matter how deep the water. You just need someone to get you to dry land.
The brain doesn’t know the difference between recalling a memory versus reliving a memory.
Trauma survivors often relive memories on an unconscious level, causing unexplained anxiety, emotional outbursts, and self-sabotage.
Scenario 1: A client is driving across a rain-slicked bridge, but part of them is trapped in a past car accident. The result: An “unexplained” panic attack. They blame driving anxiety, but unprocessed trauma is to blame.
Scenario 2: They are walking into an interview, but part of them is trapped in a memory where a parent told them “they would never amount to anything.” The result: They stumble through the interview with a racing heart. They blame low self-esteem, but repressed trauma is to blame.
Scenario 3: A client feels they don’t fit in at their new job. They moved to the States as a child where they faced a language barrier and daily bigotry. When asked about the “first time” they felt a lack of belonging, they respond: “Every day of my life.” Where should a practitioner begin?
A typical practitioner might guide the client to tap on the related past events, but what if:
The client “doesn’t feel anything” about the memory?
The client has “already worked on that” memory?
A trauma has too many memories to choose.
The client emotionally floods before you can hear what happened?
As a trauma-informed practitioner, you will know how to work with parts of a client that feel trapped in or overwhelmed by the past, disconnected from the past, or able to analytically explain away the past all the while seeming pretty emotionally numb.
Dissociation is when you are tapping with a client and suddenly they flood with emotion. The tears are different than a good cry. They are a deer-in-headlights cry of a flashback: Their dissociative freeze response is not healthy for your client or their adrenal-fatigued nervous system.
5 Days after my 5th birthday. A car moving too fast in front of my childhood home. I went from being the middle child to the oldest child.
I used to share my EFT origin story as the day my brother died…
while telling you “his death happened for a reason,”
while explaining that the trauma was “a catalyst that helped me be the practitioner I am today.”
It wasn’t until 3 decades after his accident that a trauma-informed EMDR therapist told me that she would NOT let me talk about his death (despite me adamantly saying that I’d worked on it dozens of times over decades) until we’d practiced at least a month of trauma-informed resourcing.
Resourcing is the practice of reteaching the nervous system that it is safe after years of being in a state of fight or flight.
I was not on board with my practitioner's slow pace, until our third session when something profound happened.
I started crying.
For the first time, I was grieving my brother’s life. I cried for him all the time, but this was different. Instead of grieving my innocence, or the unfairness, or the catastrophic changes that tidal waved my parents. I cried about the man he would have been.. that I never got to meet.
My therapist looked at me and said: This is why we took it slow:
“People who survive traumatic loss can’t actually grieve until they grieve the traumatic way the loss occurred,” she said.
I would never work with a client the same way. I would never ask them “When was the first time you felt this?” Because going straight to the scene of the crime would trigger all their walls… which would lead us to waste session focused on anger instead of grief, anxiety instead of shame, and depression instead of guilt.
A lack of trauma training can lead to surface emotions vs. root emotions.
Trauma-informed somatic exercises move beyond surface-level emotions to the primary repressed emotions that keep trauma alive in your client’s body.
I designed this workshop so that you can move beyond surface (often retraumatizing) emotions, and connect with the root cause of their suffering safely yet efficiently.
My Why.
Your Why.
Never feel
in over your head.
Do you want to feel confident when unexpected Big 'T' traumas surface?
Do you know the difference between PTSD and Complex PTSD? And why you must approach them VERY differently?
Do you want to support survivors of abuse and sexual abuse?
Do you want to practice gentle yet powerful approaches to integrate trauma (like Netflix Tearless Trauma and Trauma-informed Choices Method?)
Do you want to feel equipped when a client dissociates?
Do you want to be able to share at-home resources to support clients in between sessions?
The common equalizer is a trauma history.
Even if you don’t specialize in trauma, it will come up when you least expect it.
This training will give you the confidence to safely support any client who has experienced complex trauma, including:
Racial trauma.
Sexual abuse.
Childhood neglect.
Precognitive trauma.
Caregivers with mental illness.
With complex trauma, you cannot ask, “When was the first time you felt this way?” You must approach the repetitive scenarios of abuse and harm from a trauma-informed angle.
100% of Students Surveyed report: “Every practitioner should enroll in this course.”
When I came to Jackie's workshop, I had already taken 3 workshops on EFT and big T traumas, but I always felt that I still didn't fully understand nor was fully prepared to work on the detailed aspects of a big T trauma event with a client.
Jackie's workshop was completely different. I came away for the first time feeling like I fully understood the difference between a big cry and emotional flooding and how to recognize when a client may be emotionally flooding.
I finally feel I have the tools and techniques, when the client feels ready, to work gently with them on the main part of the event with its detailed aspects.
Fiona, Tapping for Weight Loss Coach
This is the first training I've done with Jackie. Other EFTU Students and Certified Practitioners had told me that her workshops never disappointed. I now concur with their reactions. It will likely be a long time (if ever) that I'll offer as much value to my clients as Jackie does to me, but it's good to have a role model.
Sarah, Certified EFT Practitioner
I absolutely LOVE Jackie's workshops! This is my third one and truly I gain so much as a practitioner in each one. Jackie gives her whole heart in these trainings and it shows in the quality of the material and energy of the container. This trauma workshop should be mandatory training for every practitioner and I'm so glad I attended.
