Integrative Approach to Healing Trauma and Chronic Pain
Dr. Jenn Au
Trauma and chronic pain can feel like they control every aspect of your life, often leaving you frustrated, exhausted, and disconnected from the activities you once enjoyed.

Through a combination of somatic experiencing, pain reprocessing therapy, hypnotherapy, holistic bodywork, and physical therapy, we can truly transform our relationship with trauma and chronic pain. These holistic modalities help calm the nervous system, reduce the emotional charge around pain and trauma, and tap into the body’s natural ability to heal.
Join this workshop to discover how a holistic, integrative approach can help you find ease, grace, and peace in your healing journey.
