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.
