Welcome to our virtual home! Here you’ll find the heart of our twenty-five years of collaborative work and links to our many diverse interests. 

If you haven’t already, be sure to sign up for regular updates about our work and interests by entering your email address in the subscribe box in the right hand column.

Our knowledge base has grown so large that we are in the process of breaking it out into eight interlinked websites—a move that we hope will make it easier for you to find exactly what interests you most. Once we’ve made this shift, you will be able to find more extensive information about our trainings, our projects, our interests and our books. We’ll be including free inventories, self-assessment tools and even sample chapters from some of our books.

Much of our expansion is being driven by the January 2010 release of our newest book, Healing Developmental Trauma: A Systems Approach for Counseling Individuals, Couples and Families. The culmination of 25 years of research, it is the most comprehensive compilation of our developmental approach for understanding how early childhood trauma impacts human evolution. We are working with Love Publishing in Denver, Colorado, who has published several of our other books. Stan Love and Carrie Watterson are great personal and professional friends, and we appreciate the opportunity to work with them again.

This groundbreaking book examines the role of unhealed early childhood shock, trauma or stress in all forms of mental and physical illness, including schizophrenia and degenerative diseases such as cancer, diabetes and heart disease, and provides an integrative systems approach for healing them.

Because many people are unaware that shock, trauma and stress are quite different psychobiological states, this book places them on a continuum ranging from extreme to mild. It then describes the distinguishing behavioral symptoms for each, the unique orientations to time for each, and the different parts of the brain and the autonomic nervous system that are involved. Most importantly, the book emphasizes that each state requires specific and unique clinical interventions.

Stay tuned here for updates on our expanded web presence and all the new features our sites will offer to better meet your needs.
