BBTRS® may be a good fit if:

you are interested in becoming certified in the BBTRS® Six Element approach to trauma release.
you work with people and want to deepen your capacity,
you are drawn to trauma-informed somatic work,
you feel there is “something missing” in your current approach,
or you are seeking both personal transformation and professional growth.

Yes. BBTRS® places strong emphasis on nervous system regulation, consent, pacing, grounding, and emotional safety throughout the training process.

Not necessarily. BBTRS® avoids forced catharsis; we work within your capacity using pacing, consent, and titration. Strong sensations can arise, but we let the body lead so change integrates rather than overwhelms your system. You can always slow down, observe, or pause—no force, no breath holds.
