Nervous System Protocols for Healing Relationship Ruptures
Conflict is part of every close relationship. Partners misunderstand each other. Friendships fracture. Family and cultural divides grow harder to bridge. For many clients, these ruptures don’t just hurt. They activate old survival patterns, pulling them into fight, flight, freeze, or fawn long before they can find the words.
Most people have never been taught how to repair. An apology may be offered, but connection doesn’t return. Or the conflict ends, but the body stays braced.
This four-module training offers a grounded, embodied approach to relational repair. Drawing on polyvagal theory, parts work, interpersonal communication, and Somatic Experiencing®, you’ll learn why ruptures are held so deeply in the nervous system and how to help clients move toward repair that is felt in the body, not just understood intellectually. You’ll practice tools for both sides of a rupture, the one who caused harm and the one who was harmed, and watch Dr. Peter A. Levine bring these principles to life in a live demonstration.
You’ll leave with practical frameworks you can use with clients, and a deeper capacity to stay present and grounded in your own relationships, too.
