Trauma shapes the brain, but so does recovery. With the right support, safety & connection, the nervous system can heal, regulation can be learned, triggers can lose intensity& connection can create new patterns of safety. Healing happens in relationships, in self-compassion & in small steps forward

We’ve finally made it to BlueSky. Our mission is to ensure that the right to recovery from childhood trauma is established and is available for all children, that resilience is developed and cycles of abuse and neglect are broken. We’d love to connect with others working in this field.
