Understanding the Living Legacy of Trauma

Learn how you can heal the psychological and somatic imprints of trauma

Have you ever felt helpless or ineffective when it comes to helping traumatized clients?

I have spent the last 30 years implementing a new approach to trauma treatment, and I want to share it with you.

Trauma Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST) is a unique trauma-informed parts treament approach I have developed over the last twenty years, integrating ideas and techniques drawn from many different models. TIST has helped a variety of clients by taking the intensity out of treatment and replacing it with a method that is gentle and accessible.

I always hoped for an approach to trauma that would not require re-living the horror of childhood, and TIST makes that possible by focusing on how the effects of traumatic events persist as a a ‘living legacy’.

Join over 250 certified TIST therapists from around the world!

Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment (TIST) is a trauma-informed parts treatment approach I have developed over the last twenty years, integrating ideas and techniques drawn from many different models: IFS, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, clinical hypnosis, and cognitive restructuring.
