Description

When I first began my work as a therapist, I leaned heavily on traditional talk therapy – holding space, helping clients process their stories. It was meaningful work. But I found myself asking: What’s missing?

The answer became clear – trauma doesn’t just live in our thoughts. It lives in the body. In the nervous system. In our relationships. In our daily habits. In our support systems – lack thereof, often shaped by culture, history, and systemic factors.

Once I started addressing trauma in the body through nutrition, lifestyle, and social connection – with attention to each client’s cultural context – everything changed. Clients weren’t just gaining insight; they were experiencing real, lasting transformation. They were feeling at home in themselves again, sleeping better, connecting more deeply.

And I’ve been practicing that way ever since.

That shift inspired me to create the Holistic Trauma Treatment Workshop – a comprehensive, online training that gives you the tools to support your clients in healing trauma at every level: physical, emotional, mental, relational, and cultural.

In this course, I’ll guide you through:

  • Somatic and nervous system-based trauma approaches
  • Nutrition and lifestyle strategies to support recovery
  • Social and relational tools that rebuild connection and co-regulation
  • Mind-body interventions you can use in session right away
  • Multicultural considerations for adapting interventions with respect to clients’ values, identities, and lived experiences

If you’re ready to expand your impact, deepen your healing toolkit, and work in a way that honors the whole person – body, mind, and spirit – I invite you to join me.

With gratitude,

Dr. Brittany Prioleau, LPC
