I provide training for professionals treating trauma, focusing on cutting-edge applications & promoting resilience.

Using the lens of the nervous system with applied Polyvagal Theory, these trainings are found to be highly useful, nourishing & supportive. TRAUMA-INFORMED TRAINING:
THE NEUROBIOLOGY OF RESILIENCY & POST-TRAUMATIC GROWTH
I’m Ruby Jo Walker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of Post-Traumatic Growth Somatic Therapy™. For the last 30 years, my work has evolved from offering psychotherapy services into helping other helping professionals. I host trainings and consultation groups for therapists, healthcare workers, spiritual care leaders, bodyworkers, human services workers, advocates, educators, and anyone wanting to learn more about trauma. As an expert in interpersonal neurobiology, psychotherapy, and trauma treatment, my trainings, consultations, and therapy work incorporate cutting-edge principles of polyvagal theory, neurobiology, attachment-based perspective, resilience, and a somatic lens. These concepts are proven to better assist clients and patients as they develop resiliency and deep transformation in all areas of life.

Ruby Jo Walker is committed to helping others understand trauma, healing, and the nervous system through a compassionate, trauma-informed approach.

Effective trauma treatment begins with asking the right question: Why is the nervous system stuck?

Clients may present with similar symptoms, but the underlying cause can be very different. Using the three treatment maps—General Nervous System Functioning, Co-Regulation Capacity, and Limiting Beliefs—helps clinicians identify the source of dysregulation and apply interventions that create meaningful, lasting change.

This nervous system lens is a core component of Post-Traumatic Growth Somatic Therapy™, giving clinicians a practical framework for working with trauma in a more effective and compassionate way.

Join us for our upcoming Foundations Training in Durango:
