Developed by Dr. Arielle Schwartz, Resilience Informed Therapy is a strength-based model of care that centers mind-body techniques to guide recovery and facilitate post-traumatic growth for individuals recovering from trauma, PTSD, and complex PTSD.
Widely recognized and applied by therapeutic practitioners around the world, this integrative approach involves research-based techniques including:
The short answer is no—anyone can benefit from Resilience Informed Therapy and from the resources provided at the Center. Whether you have a clear history of trauma, are uncertain about whether you’ve experienced trauma, or haven’t identified any traumatic events in your life, you can benefit from the practice of building resilience.
Being human involves inevitable exposure to stress, and research suggests that most of us will be exposed to at least one traumatic event in our lifetimes. Stress and trauma can lead to imbalances in the physiology of the autonomic nervous system; and if left unaddressed, this can cause mental and physical health problems, like anxiety, fatigue, depression, migraines, digestive imbalances, or joint inflammation.
By building resilience, you can enhance your capacity to handle challenges with composure, as well as recover swiftly in order to maintain a balanced nervous system and both prevent and recover from symptoms like these.
Whether your goal is to heal from a traumatic event, find the root of unidentified pain, or build resilience to everyday stress, the resources at the Center and from our Community Partners can support your wellbeing.
There are many effective therapeutic approaches available, and in fact, Resilience Informed Therapy itself is an integrative treatment involving multiple distinct therapies like EMDR, somatic therapy, and Relational psychotherapy. The effectiveness of a therapy model depends on the individual’s unique needs, preferences, and goals for growth and recovery.
We encourage you to discuss therapy options with your current provider or to reach out to a practitioner with an open practice. An open conversation about your preferences, experiences, and healing goals can help guide you toward a supportive therapeutic partnership and the most effective therapeutic approach for your individual needs.
