If any helping professional promises fast transformation, they’re overlooking the slow pace of neuroplasticity and the complexity of autonomic states shaped by years of survival.

Complex trauma creates dense neural networks that link together memory, emotion, sensation, impulses, behaviours and perceptions of the self.

These networks can’t just be rewired with rapid cathartic practices, 3-min nervous system hacks or five sessions.

Hacks and trends may offer momentary relief by shifting states, but reorganization of the nervous system that leads to healing comes as a result of a longer-term consistent work that takes time.

Our biology depends on predictable signals of safety.

Overnight change isn’t real.

The nervous system updates through slow, layered experiences that shift patterns across the whole body including the vagus nerve, limbic system, and prefrontal cortex.

If you experience complex trauma, it’s important that you work with helping professionals who understand nervous system science, trauma pacing, rupture and repair, and the time required for neural repatterning.

The nervous system doesn’t heal with shortcuts and speed.

You deserve support that honours the neurobiology of trauma.
