The Healing Trauma Program

“We all hold the keys to our personal healing.” —Jeffrey Rutstein, PsyD

While the anxiety, fear, stress, and worry of trauma are real, there is hope.

With the Healing Trauma Program, renowned psychotherapist and expert in trauma treatment Dr. Jeffrey Rutstein invites you to participate in a transformational nine-month “blended learning” event combining virtual live sessions and self-paced learning to explore trauma—what it is, how it impacts us, and how we can cultivate skills to grow from adversity. 

Featuring teachings and practices from an esteemed collection of educators, researchers, and clinical practitioners, this program will give you the tools to more deeply understand your responses to trauma, anticipate your triggers, and uncover the solid ground within you during times of upheaval. This program speaks to the pain, trauma, and loss present from the pandemic, and from all the events in our largely unstable world right now.

Devoting yourself to this program will be a gift to yourself and others—an enriching, life-changing event with effects that will ripple over generations. For helping professionals of all kinds, parents, therapists, massage therapists, yoga teachers, leaders, coaches, educators, and more, this program takes great strides in closing the gap that is dividing us all, through:
