Description
Experiential, embodied RTR helps clients become engaged in their own healing.
Drawing from Growing Up with Addiction, this workshop explores how children from addiction-impacted families develop nervous systems wired for vigilance, shaping attachment, identity, and self-worth. In adulthood, those early survival patterns become reenacted and repeated through partnering, parenting, work, and connection. Through Relational Trauma Repair (RTR)—a synthesis of sociometry, psychodrama, somatic awareness, and embodied action—participants transform implicit trauma into felt safety. RTR turns healing into something lived in the body: clarifying, connecting, and reorganizing the inner world so new relational possibilities can be felt in real time.
