Trauma Relief Workshop

All CoursesTrauma Relief Workshop

A free, self-paced workshop with Carol Look, Rick Wilkes, and Sue Beer

Understand Trauma and Build Pathways Toward Relief

This recorded three-day workshop explores how trauma can remain active in the body, mind, relationships, and protective patterns. Through teaching, questions, and EFT demonstrations, you can learn at your own pace and return to the sessions that meet what is active now.

Trauma Relief Workshop cover

Trauma Can Freeze Possibility—and Possibility Can Return

The workshop explores the mechanics of trauma, freeze and discharge, separation and connection, personality, pain, sexuality, relationships, addictions, military experience, and the vows people make when they are trying to survive.

When Trauma Lives Beyond the Story

A trauma pattern can continue through body tension, freeze, disconnection, pain, vigilance, shame, relationship expectations, or coping that once helped you survive. The pattern is not proof that you are broken. It is evidence that your system learned to protect you.

What Relief Can Restore

Relief can mean more present-time choice: feeling the ground, staying connected with yourself, setting a boundary, grieving without drowning, receiving support, or remembering what happened without the same experience taking over the whole system.

Three Teachers, Complementary Doorways

Rick Wilkes

Rick’s sessions explore childhood trauma and the primitive brain, the traumatized body, sexual healing, and Inner Tapping. Each of his four presentations includes an in-depth lesson guide for reflection and practice.

Carol Look and Sue Beer

Carol’s sessions explore separation, pain, relationships, and veterans. Sue’s sessions explore big and small trauma, the past, addictions, and vows. Their original presentations and readable transcripts are included as complete course lessons.

Two question-and-answer sessions bring all three teachers together around participant experiences. The workshop also includes an 80-page handbook, a 520-page complete transcript, and three bonus sessions with Rick Wilkes and Cathy Vartuli.

Move at the Pace That Preserves Relationship

You can follow the workshop in order or choose one topic. Audio and readable transcripts are available for every recorded session.

  • Begin with one specific reaction, body sensation, relationship pattern, or old conclusion.
  • Pause, orient to the room, move, eat, rest, or seek company when the material becomes too activating.
  • Let stopping, skipping, and returning later remain valid choices.
  • Use qualified trauma-informed medical or mental-health support when the work needs more steadiness or specialized care.

You do not have to revisit every detail to heal. The next useful step may be grounding, being witnessed, strengthening a boundary, or discovering that more choice is available now.
