Southwest Trauma Training- Ruby Jo Walker, LCSW

I provide training for professionals treating trauma, focusing on cutting-edge applications & promoting resilience.

Using the lens of the nervous system with applied Polyvagal Theory, these trainings are found to be highly useful, nourishing & supportive. TRAUMA-INFORMED TRAINING:
THE NEUROBIOLOGY OF RESILIENCY & POST-TRAUMATIC GROWTH
I’m Ruby Jo Walker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of Post-Traumatic Growth Somatic Therapy™. For the last 30 years, my work has evolved from offering psychotherapy services into helping other helping professionals. I host trainings and consultation groups for therapists, healthcare workers, spiritual care leaders, bodyworkers, human services workers, advocates, educators, and anyone wanting to learn more about trauma. As an expert in interpersonal neurobiology, psychotherapy, and trauma treatment, my trainings, consultations, and therapy work incorporate cutting-edge principles of polyvagal theory, neurobiology, attachment-based perspective, resilience, and a somatic lens. These concepts are proven to better assist clients and patients as they develop resiliency and deep transformation in all areas of life.

Your nervous system is the foundation of how you experience life. When it is regulated, you rediscover your resilience.

When clinicians speak from experience, we listen. Grateful for the meaningful work we get to do alongside dedicated professionals 🪻

01/01/2026

Everyone talks about new year goals…
But your body craves one primary thing: safety. This year, let’s give it to ourselves and others around us.

Are you able to follow your own impulses that lead you to feel more of a sense of safety?

Can you consider sending a signal to others of safety?

12/30/2025

Little and often is what helps the nervous system. Gratitude, practiced in small authentic doses, acts as a gentle re‑orientation toward safety.

Family gatherings can activate old wounds.
Old roles. Old expectations.
Old survival strategies.

You’re not regressing — your nervous system is reacting to familiar cues.
Take breaks. Breathe. Step outside.
Your peace matters.

12/23/2025

Don’t wrap up appreciation and leave it unopened — give it away. ✨

When big feelings rise, small gestures matter. A hand to the heart can help your nervous system settle and reconnect 💚
