I am a Certified Facilitator of TCTSY, a specialized, empirically validated clinical intervention for complex trauma and chronic symptoms of PTSD originally developed at The Trauma Center in Brookline, MA.
Certification: 300 hour course over 8 months through the Center for Trauma and Embodiment at Justice Resource Institute.
Incorporating elements from Hatha Yoga, interpersonal and attachment theory, and trauma model theory, TCTSY offers a guided physical form and movement-based intervention to strengthen greater sense of trust and safety within one's own body and self system.
TCTSY can be incorporated into individual psychotherapy sessions, or scheduled as a full TSY session.
