Be your best instrument for healing 

How does the model help me help them?

Structure and guidance to:

Be gracefully able to guide clients to build their safe base (Zone 1), in a somatically aware way and broaden their bandwidth, stability and flexibility for processing implicit (body based) trauma memory (Zone 2).

Easily ensure they have the understanding of the neuroscience of trauma and attachment (Zone 3), so they are able to better accept and understand their life trajectory as well as experiencing on triggers and baseline.  I find this really helps people let go of self judgment and step into 'OK, what do I need to do next'.

Support client processing of their whole of life story, incorporating their nervous system story.  Provide an array of tools for clients to use, to bring something now that was needed then, with all three levels of brain online, within the clients window of presence, with access across all 7 areas of Connected Experiencing (Zone 4).

Recognise and meet clients in each moment with more of your own authentic self present, able to see and support clients to ground and deepen in their own.  Help clients identify their authentic self experience and consciously connect and create from that place from the 8 pointed diamond of the Integrated You (Zone 5).
