Simply put, this groundbreaking model helps us see the forest for the trees.
The Trauma Ecology Integration Model (TEIM™) is a new approach, not because it reinvents trauma treatment or names new ‘trees’, but because it maps how they exist in orbit with one another over time.
Instead of treating trauma in isolated fragments or reduced complexities, such as a sole focus on the nervous system, or generational wounds, or attachment disruptions, or triggers and responses to emotional dysregulation… TEIM™ shows how each orbit of harm, resulting from trauma, intersects and reverberates through the whole ecology of our lives. This intersectional view changes how we treat trauma. Trauma is not made up of isolated parts to fix, but as an atmosphere of living and moving systems to understand, integrate, and heal.
