Aura Morris, LCSW
Trauma Intensives
You have done great trauma processing already, but either something is still stuck...or you just know you need something deeper.
You have done some great therapy...talk therapy, trauma therapy, all the things. Maybe you have dabbled in alternative healing modalities or been curious about energy work or psychedelics. It just seems like you need something more.
Maybe you...
Have done EMDR or IFS (parts work) successfully, but some things still won't move
Have a sense that some of what's stuck might be ancestral - from intergenerational trauma - or energetic. You like to joke that you've been cursed or made some soul level agreements you no longer want to be in.
Feel really drawn to alternative healing modalities and wonder if they could help with your healing
What do we offer?
Interdisciplinary Intensives weave together state of the art trauma therapy with alternative healing modalities. Each is tailored to the client based on their areas of interest and my recommendations. During your initial intake appointment, we will spend time discussing the options and choose 1 or 2 options to incorporate in your intensives. If you'd like to incorporate an alternative healing practice that is not listed, let me know!
We have a network of trusted professionals that help us navigate this work with precision and in a way that honors each client's unique journey.
1 / Energy Work
Energy work can include Reiki, QHHT, or sound therapy. With this option, we invite a trusted energy work practitioner to join us for a period of time and incorporate this into EMDR/IFS as needed.
2 / Ketamine-Assisted Therapy
With KAP, we spend time ahead of time getting medical clearance and prescription for sublingual ketamine, and then we use the ketamine to facilitate access during trauma work during the intensive.
3 / Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE)
TRE teaches your body how to 'tremor' to release traumatic content that is stuck in the nervous system and tissues. For this modality, we invite a practitioner to join us for a chunk of time to work with this modality before resuming trauma processing.
3 / Past Life Regression Therapy
In this work, we invite a trained and experienced clinician to join us for a piece of work and use hypnosis techniques to guide you through a past life regression. This is integrated with IFS and EMDR as needed.
What is a Holistic Trauma Intensive?
A holistic trauma intensive is a one day experience where we blend EMDR and/or IFS with other integrative approaches to accelerate a client's healing or move past a stuck point. We often bring in another practitioner to lead the alternative or complementary work. The exact modalities that are used and practitioners will be based on client preferences, though we can help you choose and coordinate the services.
Who is a HolisticTrauma Intensive For?
A holistic trauma intensive is for those who have done deep trauma processing already and still feel that something is stuck or something is missing. It is also a great fit for those who already use or feel called to various alternative healing practices, such as Reiki, ancestor work, sound healing, ketamine-assisted therapy, or other soul or spirit based practices.
