Community Health Workers (CHW) are trusted messengers with similar shared lived experience as the population they serve. CHW's provide non-clinical peer based support services in the community including health promotion, health navigation, screening and assessment, resource connection, and individual support or advocacy.

Trauma-Informed Integral Coaching is an holistic method that works with the whole person to include adult development, skill building, practices, and psychoeducation to support individuals recovering from trauma to reclaim a felt sense of safety in our bodies, relationships, and the world.

Sometimes we know that we are impacted by trauma because we experience a persistent state of hypervigilance, our nervous systems are chronically dysregulated, or we are triggered often, and we can point to a single traumatic event that brought on these symptoms.

Other times it's difficult to put our finger on because there isn't a single cause, or because we have gotten used to feeling unsafe or walking on eggshells and this has become our baseline. Experiencing this impact of trauma usually has a more chronic cause such as insecure attachment, ACEs score of 4+, discrimination, abuse, or chronic stress.
