Why Trauma and Somatics?

About us

Our vision of a healthier, happier world.

Trauma and Somatics was co-created by Will Rezin and Aurianna Joy, who have 35 years of combined experience in personal growth + inner work, along with a combined 23 years working as helping professionals.

When we began our training to offer trauma-centered care as Somatic Experiencing Practitioners® in 2017, we realized there was a significant gap in the personal development + self-help industry. This gap was leaving people more fragmented from themselves as a result of not understanding the neurophysiology of stress and trauma.

We asked ourselves, "How can we help people maximize the benefits of personal development while minimizing its risks?"

Thus, Trauma and Somatics was born in August of 2020.

We’ve taken everything we've learned in our years of experience as helping professionals and created a 3-month immersive journey to guide you in becoming a trauma-informed human and practitioner.

Here's what we're about as a company:

T+S Purpose: To create a trauma-informed world, for the benefit of all beings.

T+S Mission: We train helping professionals to offer trauma-sensitive care to their communities.

T+S Vision: We envision a world free from trauma. A world where safety, dignity, and belonging are common values. A world where all beings are happy and free.
