A huge thank you to Jessica Charles for leading our powerful two-day workshop 'Wounds Before Words: The Body's Story of Preverbal Trauma’

Through both theory and experiential exercises, we explored how to attune to and support clients in reconnecting with their bodies and hearts, addressing the silent wounds that shape their emotional and relational worlds.

“Facilitating the Wounds Before Words training was both humbling and deeply moving. Over the two days we explored how preverbal trauma lives in the body, through a blend of theory, experiential practice, and reflection. I was struck by the courage, openness, and willingness of the group to engage with these tender places."
