TRAUMA-INFORMED TRAINING

Master Evidence-Based Practices that Empower You to Foster Awareness, Responsiveness, and Resilience 

No more food trauma or body shaming

Grief and trauma-informed care is not problem solving, but rather about deeply understanding each person’s unique experience. Traditional education and behavior recommendations often fall short in fostering genuine connection and have the potential of re-traumatizing or shaming.  With this training, you’ll be empowered to: 

  • Identify signs and symptoms of trauma
  • Mindfully hold space for grief 
  • Guide others through mindfulness practices 
  • Collaborate with like-minded professionals

Master evidence-based practices that empower you to foster awareness, responsiveness, and resilience for your clients.  No more food trauma or body shaming.

Trauma-informed nutrition is not just about understanding the link between adverse experiences and health—it’s about transforming the way we interact with one another. This holistic approach emphasizes the importance of deep listening, mindful language, and a present-centered focus prioritizing meaningful connection.  A thorough and sensitive approach can uncover underlying issues that may be affecting long term health. Adopting a language that is free from shame, blame, and judgment creates a safe space within ourselves and one another.  

We were never taught that our behaviors may not really feel like a choice.  Instead, some actions and routines are developed out of deep-seated fears related to food, health, or discussions about one’s body. The good news is  we can build trust and improve health and move toward a better way of relating to ourselves and one another.
