TRAUMA SOLUTIONS

OUR STORY

After 25+ years teaching––and thousands of hours of clinical work helping clients recover from trauma––Dr. Diane Poole Heller recognized that, despite the incredible healing work being done, many therapists and their clients still had trouble “putting attachment theory into action.”

Dr. Heller saw first-hand how many traumas are rooted in early childhood experiences, which in turn, influence how we feel, act and behave in our adult relationships.

Yet, simply recognizing or identifying attachment wounds is not enough on its own to facilitate lasting change and healing. 

Dr. Heller believes that both therapists and their clients need a pragmatic  framework to help address and resolve unhealthy attachment patterns easily, effectively and extensively.

In 2011, Dr. Heller founded Trauma Solutions to offer world-class experiential training for clinicians, mental health professionals, educators, first responders and individuals seeking personal growth.

By integrating attachment theory principles with practical applications of  trauma resolution skills, strategies and interventions, our training strives to provide the worldwide therapeutic community (and the general public) with information and resources to help people heal from relational wounding––so they can restore secure attachment in their journey to greater intimacy, wholeness and resilience.

HEALING RELATIONAL TRAUMA​

  • Identify Behavior Patterns

    Attachment work helps us recognize the root causes of many of our unhealthy relationship patterns, habits and perspectives—offering us tools to help make more emotionally-intelligent choices in the future.

  • Develop Healthier Habits

    By clearing blocks and obstacles created by old attachment wounds, we restore our innate capacity for secure attachment, allowing us to feel more safely connected so we can practice new, healthier behaviors.

  • Start a Relationship Revolution

    Imagine a world where we can all emerge from incredible loss, fear and powerlessness to heal broken connections and regain safety in relationships to discover greater intimacy, wholeness, joy and resilience.

HOW THE TRAINING HELPS YOU

“I experienced surprising insights, learning and inspiration during this training. I’ve worked with many leaders and teachers––and Diane manifests love of people, good humor and professionalism. Her skill, generosity and humility are refreshing and make me feel deeply appreciative. Thanks to Diane and her circle!”
BOB BARRETTEdmonton, Canada
“I offer spiritual guidance and coaching. Recognizing how many people are dealing with trauma, I was drawn to attachment theory and the work being done with healing individual and collective trauma. Learning about attachment styles has given me insight into the few individuals who have responded in ways that seemed to me incongruent with my intent and feeling tone and the way most others would respond. Diane’s clarity…along with her non-pathologizing embrace of our humanness makes the material even more relatable and easy to grasp.”
ELLEN DAVISLos Angeles, CA
“Not having easy access to these wonderful trainings in our embattled South Africa—where dealing compassionately and effectively with trauma is incredibly important—this has been such a profound learning experience for me. On a personal level I have been touched and moved by not only the impeccable scientific wisdom, but the kindness and compassion with which it was delivered. Thank you for taking the time, feeling the stress, and making this incredible opportunity available for free.”
